Andy, OSOL 2009.06 been installed in stub domain (hvm domain) at mentioned Dom0 with 2.6.30 xenified kernel via xen-patches-2.6.30-2.tar.bz2 refuse to activate PV drivers. When same Dom0 starts with 2.6.29.4 xenified kernel (xen-patches-2.6.29-6.tar.bz2) kernel OSOL 2009.06 in stub (hvm) domain does activate PV drivers for xdf, xnf . Boris

Hi, I am sucesfully running 2.6.30 xenified kernel: Machine DELL Optiplex 960 CPU intel E8400 8GB RAM Debian lenny 5.0 x64 Xen 3.4.1 rc11 + kernel 2.6.30.2 xenified thanks to howto from bderzhavets: http://bderzhavets.wordpress.com/2009/07/07/building-xenified-2-6-30-1-kernel-via-xen-patches-2-6-30-2-tar-bz2/ So far running ok. 1) I am not able to resolve issue while booting xenified

Hi Daniel, i''ve tested your kernel with slight modifications to your .config (-> domU only) on 64bit 3.2.1 and 3.3 as guest kernel. Compared to the classic 2.6.18.8 the guests are consuming about 25% more CPU, network IO increased by about 15%, disk IO also. Memory footprint is about 10% less. Maybe there are better caching strategies built into this 2.6.29. I''d like to try

Hello all, I compiled the kernel with the xen patch and I seam to have trouble with some kernel modules, like ATI''s proprietary driver. The system seams considerably slower than before, this might be because of the video drivers, or maybe the RAM alocated to dom0 (512Mb instead of it''s usual 1Gb). When I try to run xend, it dies with a SIG 15. I attached the log file. Anyone

Hi there, I am starting a new thread to try and solve a problem I am having will slow network throughput to the XEN host (not to a domU). I have confirmed my problem occurs with PVOPS ''xen/master'' kernel as well using http://pasik.reaktio.net/xen/pv_ops-dom0-debug/config-2.6.31.6-pvops-dom0-xen-master-x86_64 as the .config. It also occurs with a forward ported xenified kernel

Hello,   I can say that I have searched the entire ''world wide web'' and still haven''t found ''complete  and clear answers'' to the often asked question of: Given a Xen (release) build (say 3.2.0), which by default tries to get and build and assume Linux kernel-xen 2.6.18 from the mercurial repository, HOW TO override the build and make it work with a

Following bellow procedure involves Solaris Kernel module debugger to patch OSOL’s (SNV_111b) kernel at booting up to succeed with dhcp lease and to be able proceed with initial install. File /etc/system gets updated via root terminal session before standard reboot to make the patch for kernel permanent

Hello, I regularly perform benchmarks of Xen/KVM systems. When Xen 3.4.3 was released I started another benchmark and found out that the xenified kernel 2.6.31-r14 from Andrew Lyon had serious performance breakdowns when used with Xen 3.4.3 or Xen 4.0.0 but not with Xen 3.4.2. The benchmark measures compiling apache 2.2.15 under gentoo. What could be the reason? date: 02.06.2010 time emerge

Hello, im struggling with getting a Fedora 11 Domu up and running. My Host is a HP DL380 g6 with CentOS 5.5 and XEN 4 from gitco installed. The System runs several Linux-PV-DomUs like Debian Lenny, Ubuntu Lucid and CentOS-55 without any problems. But if i try to get stock F11 up and running. Using Virt-install, xm create with KS-Install and Converting a working HVM-Install did not suceed. The

I have installed Ubuntu Intrepid Server on bare metal and successfully ran:- # apt-get install ubuntu-xen-server.     It installed several packages on system . Now i can see files /boot/xen-3.3.gz, /etc/init.d/xend, /etc/init.d/xendomains, but no xenified kernel gets in. Attempt  to use vmlinuz-2.6.27-7-server, obviously , fails with system panic.    I do remember recompiling  procedure for Xen

Hello, Is there any progress to have Linux 2.6.22 or 2.6.23 as dom0/domU or I miss something ? Is there any web site describe patching procedure ? Currently I use xen-unstable repo.

Odd question I know. I am looking for source for as recent a kernel as possible running the old style xenlinux/xenified kernel (i.e. capable of running the xen3.3.x hypervisor). Any ideas where I can get this - preferably in git form? I think Stefano Stabellini had something that worked up to 2.6.36 (from memory). And yes, we would all prefer all our customers moved to xen4 but this is difficult

  Tne answer is NO. Any vanilla kernel (> 2.6.27) itself allows only to enable PV Guest (paravirtual) mode, but not Xen Dom0 Support. Mainline Linux doesn''t  contain Xen Dom0 Support merged. You have to work on it on your own.   I''ve sent you two links in the very first message. View second one - patching 2.6.30.1 via Andrew''s Lyon rebase patch set :-  

Hi, I just want to know if somebody use 2.6.31.4 xenified kernel (aka OpenSUSE) in production? We have been testing it on new Nehalem Xeon server for few weeks w/o any problem. But as soon we tried it on production machine - after several production domUs started - hard OS failure. We had to switch back to 2.6.18.8 - xen stock kernel.

Hi. I spawned a thread last week about the failure of bridged networking and I have gotten a little further. Turns out that I _do_ have network connectivity from inside the domains, but I cannot get the network to come up when I boot. I have to login and start up the network manually. E.g. after installing Debian Sarge according to the debootstrap method outlined in the users manual, I created a
