similar to: SCSI driver for VMware's virtual HBA - V5.

Here is the V6, which addresses most of the suggestions from Chris'. Please consider this for the scsi-tree. Thanks, Alok (Hoping Sixth time's a charm :) VMware PVSCSI driver - v6. Changelog (v6-v5) - remove unneeded header file includes. - make pvscsi_dev as a static function. - IRQF_SHARED only for INT/X, pass zero for rest. - use __get_free_pages to allocate ctx->sgl.

Hi, I am working as a system administrator at an internet platform service provider, and I am currently seeking to re-new our Xen virtualization infrastructure for which I am mostly responsible for. Currently, we run Xen 3.4.2/3.4.3 on RHEL/CentOS 5.x (5.7) as Dom0 with CentOS 5.x pv-guests. Based on my experiments, I am currently looking into Xen 4.1.2 on RHEL/CentOS 6.x (6.2), with a

Porting the pvSCSI backend driver to the pvops kernel is turning out to be a bit harder than first thought, mostly because all the Linux routines that might be useful are written with the assumption that they would be passed a mapped buffer and they would then build an sg list out of that. pvSCSI already has an sg list, and all the routines that it makes use of have been deprecated since 2.6.18

I''m updating the gplpv pvscsi driver to support the pvscsi driver in 3.3, and it''s not working properly. The first command windows issues is a ''report luns'' command, with a 16 byte buffer. The response that Dom0 gives me says that this was executed successfully. Windows then issues another ''report luns'' command that is also returned from Dom0

Hi, These patches enhance XenAPI for pvSCSI. Basically, I implemented XenAPI for pvSCSI according to the patch of XenAPI document which I sent before. However, I renamed the class name of virtual SCSI devices to "DSCSI". As for the patch of XenAPI document, I''m going to send it next week.

I had extracted this pvscsi patch to 3.3.0 kernel. from pvscsi git and patched my kernel. both xenscsi-back front loads fine. If I start vm with xm domU and hvm can see my blurey drive with it correct name but I get scsi errors. I wonder if there is patch that gives direct access to scsi device. esxi gives direct access so makemkv works perfectly. _______________________________________________

Hi Alok, Joining this a bit late as this was just brought to my attention. It would have been nice to CC the virtualization mailing list. Please do in future submissions.

Hi, everyone! We google a lot, but can''t find how to config the pvscsi on our ubuntu13.04 PV on HVM.There are some links http://wiki.xen.org/wiki/Paravirtualized_SCSI http://wiki.xen.org/wiki/Xen_Configuration_File_Options And we use the config option above Configure PVSCSI devices vscsi = [ ''/dev/sdc, 0:0:0:0'' ] I pass sdc to the hvm, but in our pvhvm (ubuntu13.04)

Hello, http://pasik.reaktio.net/xen/patches/xen-pvscsi-drivers-linux-2.6.32.27-pvops-v01.diff This is the first version of Xen PVSCSI drivers, both the scsiback backend and scsifront frontend, ported from Novell SLES11SP1 2.6.32 Xenlinux kernel to pvops xen/stable-2.6.32.x branch. At the moment it''s *only* compile-tested with the latest xen/stable-2.6.32.x git kernel as of today

Hello, does anyone knows, if and when pvscsi will be available in the official linux kernel? Kind regards. Christian _______________________________________________ Xen-users mailing list Xen-users@lists.xensource.com http://lists.xensource.com/xen-users

All, I've updated the open-vm-tools packages that have been floating around to the latest release - 4/25/2010 - for those that are interested. There is quite a bit of new additions/changes over the past year such as the addition of a fuse driver for vmblock devices, vmxnet3, pvscsi, etc. SRPMS and .spec's available here: http://www.davehollis.com/packages/open-vm-tools-kmod.spec

I''m trying to compile pvscsi out-of-tree, and I''m getting an error that set_phys_to_machine is not defined when I try to load the module (with the warning to that effect at compile time too). This used to work fine in pvops. It seems that netfront uses that symbol in a module so I''m confused as to why pvscsi can''t... any suggestions? Is it one of the virtues of

Hello, I'm using CentOS 5.5 / 16bit as a virtual machine in VMWare Workstation and have installed the "VMWare Tools" by running vmware-install.pl and vmware-config-tools.pl but can't figure out how to make the VM shutdown, when I shutdown the Windows PC hosting it. Does anybody please have any hints or scripts? Do I need to use any VMWare modules if I just want to shutdown the

pvscsi appears to be missing from the pvops kernel. Is there a specific reason for this or has it just not been done yet? James _______________________________________________ Xen-devel mailing list Xen-devel@lists.xensource.com http://lists.xensource.com/xen-devel
