As you know, HVM save/restore broke recently because restored config miss guest memsize that used by xc_hvm_restore to locate some pfn. After discussion, we decided to remove the pfn deduction logic from restore side by adding a general memory layout. I have a patch for it. But then qemu broke, because it also require the memsize to locate the share page. We can''t use the previous

Where is the code that maps the kernel of a DomU into memory? i.e, when you do a xm create <config file> what code is called to actually map the kernel into memory? Is it a python script or is it re-directed to Dom0 to do? Thanks. -Brian --------------------------------- Ahhh...imagining that irresistible "new car" smell? Check outnew cars at Yahoo! Autos.

Last year we had a discussion[1] about how the hypercall ABI unfortunately contains fields that change width between 32- and 64-bit builds. This is a huge problem as we come up on the python management stack for ppc64, since the distributions ship 32-bit python. A 32-bit python/libxc cannot currently manage a 64-bit hypervisor. I had a patch but was unable to test it, and some other things were

This patch series adds the ability to selectively disable the S3 and S4 ACPI power states for HVM guests. Since there is a general move towards retiring the hvm_info_table structure, the first patch moves the acpi_enabled flag out of the hvm_info_table and into a xenstore key (platform/acpi). The second patch then introduces the acpi_s3 and acpi_s4 configuration parameters to the xl config file

The memory permutation cause a slow down in case of a save/restore (bug 1143). It works better when the mixing is done with 2MB chunks.

...39;'s qemu dm fix. ===know issue=== * shpage pfn * HV look for shpage pfn in an e820 entry when init. but some guest(win/em64t linux) will reuse this e820 ram, which cause losing shpage pfn when restore. so this entry is marked as "reserved" to avoid guest reuse (in this patch xc_hvm_build.c). we can change this if having good solution in future. * 64bit host vmx restore python err * when restore vmx guest on em64t host, i got a error "ERROR (xmlrpclib2:167) int exceeds XML-RPC limits" W/O blocking restore.

...ers to allow images and ramdisks to be passed via buffer, rather than via file. This allows usage of the underlying domain building routines in "file-challenged" enviroments. Specifically, xc_linux_build_mem is the buffer oriented version of the file-oriented xc_linux_build. Likewise, xc_hvm_build_mem is the buffer oriented analog of the file based xc_hvm_build. This patch also implements a suggestion by Mark Williamson to have the internal APIs always directly use uncompressed buffers. -b Signed-off-by: Ben Thomas (bthomas@virtualiron.com) _____________________________________________...

Hi all, I have some puzzle about hvmloader in the path /tools/firmware/, they are: 1: Is hvmloader running in non-root mode? 2: If hvmloader runs in non-root mode, does it have its pagetable? when set GUEST_CR3 in vmcs? 3: How can I find the value of GUEST_RIP in vmcs is set to the entry point of hvmloader,when virtual machine do it first vm entry. Much Thanks! - henanwxr

...anges are primarily in the domain building code where the firmware files are read and passed to libxc for loading into the new guest. After the domain building call to libxc, the addresses for the loaded blobs are returned and written to xenstore. Additionally, this patch switches to using the new xc_hvm_build() routine.
