Hi All, One more weird issue, this works on old xen but fails on 4.4: xendev01 ~ # mkdir /mnt/test xendev01 ~ # mount -t tmpfs - /mnt/test xendev01 ~ # dd if=/dev/null of=/mnt/test/disk seek=100M bs=1 0+0 records in 0+0 records out 0 bytes (0 B) copied, 0.000201809 s, 0.0 kB/s xendev01 ~ # /usr/sbin/xl block-attach nathannx "file:/mnt/test/disk" "xvdd4"

This is a patch to forward-port a Xend behaviour. Xend writes IO ABI used for all frontends. Blkfront before 2.6.26 relies on this behaviour otherwise guest cannot boot when running in 32-on-64 mode. Blkfront after 2.6.26 writes that node itself, in which case it''s just an overwrite to an existing node which should be OK. In fact Xend writes the ABI for all frontends including console

This is v3 of my disk series. What were previously patches 01-06 have been applied. These are the tested and updated remainder, addressing the previous comments. 1 Preparatory work. 2-4 The new parser and its documentation. 5-6 Replace old parsers with calls to the new one. 7-8 Two features, one of them essential. 9 Basic test suite for disk string parsing, as adhoc script.

This patch series adds support for network buffering in the Remus codebase in libxl. Changes in V3: [1/5] Fix redundant checks in configure scripts (based on Ian Campbell''s suggestions) [2/5] Introduce locking in the script, during IFB setup. Add xenstore paths used by netbuf scripts to xenstore-paths.markdown [3/5] Hotplug scripts setup/teardown invocations are now

This patch series provides the facility to eject and insert a cdrom when the used device-model is qemu-xen. The only difference between both device-model is a call to a QMP command as `xl cd-insert ...` will still update xenstore, even if it''s not used by QEMU.

I think I posted this patch before, but it looks like it was in December 2012 (!). 1/1 libxl: introduce an option for disabling the non-O_DIRECT workaround Ideally it would go into 4.4, at least. Provided the corresponding qemu part has gone into qemu-xen, which I think it has. Can anyone confirm ?

Do not set ''bridge'' parameter - let vif-bridge script to do autodetection. Actually ''network-bridge'' never creates xenbr0 interface by default, so defaulting bridge to xenbr0 is senseless.

Hi All, I'm seeing tapdisk processes not being terminated after a HVM vm is shutdown or migrated away. I don't see this problem with linux paravirt domu's, just windows hvm ones. xl.cfg: name = 'nathanwin' memory = 4096 vcpus = 2 disk = [ 'file:/mnt/gtc_disk_p1/nathanwin/drive_c,hda,w' ] vif = [ 'mac=00:16:3D:01:03:E0,bridge=vlan208' ] builder =

Hi, I am doing some experimentation with xen and Ceph and have a problem booting my guest when my disk = [] uses an alternate block script. Installation from a .iso was ok since the boot device was a file but now trying to boot from the rbd neither the hvmbuilder or pygrub can start as they treat the first value after target= as the /dev node to try and use. My disk parameter looks like: disk =
