I experienced a bug that is likely the same as https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1350373 . Commit b7dd0e350e0bd4c0fddcc9b8958342700b00b168 , which is supposed to fix it, doesn't appear in this kernel and doesn't apply cleanly either. Is there any point in trying to backport the patch? The backtrace is as follows: [ 32.304666] ------------[ cut here ]------------ [

The user has the option of disabling the platform driver: 00:02.0 Unassigned class [ff80]: XenSource, Inc. Xen Platform Device (rev 01) which is used to unplug the emulated drivers (IDE, Realtek 8169, etc) and allow the PV drivers to take over. If the user wishes to disable that they can set: xen_platform_pci=0 (in the guest config file) or xen_emul_unplug=never (on the Linux command

While installing the experemental kernel on a CentOS 7 PV the following happened. After a reboot of the PV the kernel looks to be installed but there is no option for booting it in grub. I attempted to run yum reinstall kernel-4.9.75-204.el7.centos.x86_64 and it installed fine but still no entry in grub. No initramfs existed and I found kernel-modules did not install properly so I then ran

This patch series implements the Linux Xen guest in terms of the paravirt-ops interface. The features in implemented this patch series are: * domU only * UP only (most code is SMP-safe, but there's no way to create a new vcpu) * writable pagetables, with late pinning/early unpinning (no shadow pagetable support) * supports both PAE and non-PAE modes * xen console * virtual block

Unlike full virtualization in which the virtual machine provides the same platform interface as running natively on the hardware, paravirtualization requires modification to the guest operating system to work with the platform interface provided by the hypervisor. Xen was designed with performance in mind. Calls to the hypervisor are minimized, batched if necessary, and non-critical codepaths

Hi Andi, This series of patches implements the Xen paravirt-ops interface. It applies to 2.6.21-rc7 + your patches + the last batch of pv_ops patches I posted. This patch generally restricts itself to Xen-specific parts of the tree, though it does make a few small changes elsewhere. These patches include: - some helper routines for allocating address space and walking pagetables - Xen
