Hi, I hope I''m right here. If not then please point me in the right direction. My problem in short: I have problems using (pinning, mmu_update) physical pages from 0x900000 to 0xB1000 usualy. I''m writing my own little amd64 64bit toy kernel (based on Mini-OS as starting point) for xen and I run into problems with the way the start of day sets up the physical pages. My kernel

Hi, has anyone build a linux-2.6.16 deb that can be used to compile xen? The default unstable package does not seem to have any xen patches included, only the /debian/arch/amd64/xen dir for the .config files. MfG Goswin

Hi, maybe I'm missing something fundamental but I can't seem to be able to build a custom kernel-image.deb for xen. I was able to build the linux-2.6 with xen images from the repository and build a vmlinux file using the directions from upstream Xen. But I've had no luck with make-kpkg. Can anyone give me some hints? MfG Goswin

Package: xenstore-utils Version: 3.2.0-3 Severity: minor Description: Xenstore utilities for Xen This package contains the Xenstore utilities. I would hope that there would be a more descriptive description for this package, so I could know if I really need it. (Yes, I'm a newbie to the world of XENU ... I suppose I would already know if I wasn't new to this.) -- System Information:

Hi, I''m trying to use the SYSCALL/SYSRET opcodes with a minios kernel without much success. Going by the manuals (and linux sources) I first have to setup the STAR and LSTAR registers to define the segment and instruction pointer to be used for SYSCALL: /* * LSTAR and STAR live in a bit strange symbiosis. * They both write to the same internal register. STAR allows

Package: xenstore-utils Version: 4.0.1-2 all it says is: "Description: Xenstore utilities for Xen This package contains the Xenstore utilities." Wow, i never would have guessed that a package called xenstore-utils might contain Xenstore utilities. I'm glad that's cleared up! that just leaves a few tiny, niggling questions: 1. WTF are the Xenstore utilities? 2. What are

Package: xen-utils-common Version: 4.0.0-1 Severity: wishlist Tags: patch I am not a gawk/mawk expert, but I looked carefully at the few uses of gawk that I saw in /etc/xen/scripts/vtpm-common.sh and network-bridge, and I did not see anything that was gawk-specific. It would be nice if they could be changed to awk and the dependency on gawk removed. base-files is Essential: yes and it

Hi all, Fewer days ago a CentOS box server suffered a manual and unexpected reset (too large to explain: there are silly people in everywhere). The result was the system did not mount de root (/) partition and the boot process was stopped. I repair it easily: boot from LiveCD (Knoppix in my case), umount root partition and pass the e2fsck utility. Because of that I've used several fs tools

Hi, first of all, apologies if this isn't the right mailing list but it was the best I could find. If you know a better mailing list, please tell me. Today I tried to defrag one of my filesystems. It's a 3.5T large filesystem that has 6 software-raids in the bottom and then merged together using lvm. I was running ext3 but removed the journal flag with thor:~# tune2fs -O ^has_journal

I''m a bit confused about the kernel used by the Xen hypervisor. I''ve just installed a 30 day trial of XenSource''s Enterprise edition software on a Sun Fire 4600. It was my understanding that it would install a 64 bit hypervisor, however, upon running uname -a on my machine, I am told that I am running a i686 kernel. Did I miss something? How does one use a 64 bit

Hi, I''m trying to use a QLogic ipath infiniband card with xen. Unfortunately the ipath driver requires PCI_MSI and PCI_MSI conflicts with xen. Does anyone know the reason for that conflict or how hard it would be to make it work?

Hi, I''m wondering what the best way is to manage page tables for my own toy OS. I''m working with xen on amd64 so I have 64bit address space and 4 levels of page tables (L4 -> L3 -> L2 -> L1 -> page) with 512 entries each. Now here is the problem: - to change a page table entry I need the machine frame number - the machine frame number is stored in the page table

Hi! I would like to know the status of the frequency scaling in XEN. I found a web site saying that XEN doesn’t work with frequency scaling, at the other hand I found some fixes for powernow-k8 to get rid of some messages. I have an AMD64. powerno-k8 works find with non-XEN kernels, but with XEN-kernels I get the error: powernow-k8: Found 1 AMD Athlon(tm) 64 Processor 3400+ processors
