similar to: [Hackathon Minutes] Xen 4.4 Planning

This is problem 1 of 3 problems we are having with live migration and/or ACPI on Xen-4.3 and Xen-4.2. Any help would be appreciated. Detailed description of problem: We are using Xen-4.3-rc1 with dom0 running Ubuntu Precise and 3.5.0-23-generic kernel, and domU running Ubuntu Precise (12.04) cloud images running 3.2.0-39-virtual. We are using the xl.conf below on qemu-upstream-dm and HVM and

Aiming at a release some time in August, I''d like to cut RC1-s by Thursday next week (as I''ll be on a two week vacation starting Friday). Please indicate any bug fixes that so far may have been missed in the backports already done. A few fixes are currently stuck in master''s staging branch (or pending to make it there) - these don''t need to be named explicitly,

Hi everybody, the XCI project appears to have been dormant for a while and there is no project lead for XCI today. In line with Xen governance (see phttp://www.xen.org/projects/governance.html), I would like to first get community views on the health of the project and then schedule an archivation review. Let me quote from the process: "The review is essentially a pitch why the

Hello everyone! With the completion of our first few release candidates for 4.2, it''s time to look forward and start planning for the 4.3 release. I''ve volunteered to step up and help coordinate the release for this cycle. The 4.2 release cycle this time has been nearly a year and a half. One of the problems with having such a long release is that people who get in features

Hello, Currently it seems that the drbd disk type with Xen''s XL toolstack (vs XM) to get the automatic promotion/demotion behavior of drbd devices is not supported. Is there something I can tweak with the block-drbd script to get this to work? Thanks, Chris _______________________________________________ Xen-users mailing list Xen-users@lists.xen.org http://lists.xen.org/xen-users

Hi folks, From the roadmap for Xen 4.3 development, Xen 4.3 will use upstream QEMU (partially done). So I''d like to confirm the following questions. 1. Will Xen 4.3 really use upstream QEMU by default ? I have the question because so far the xen.git tree still uses qemu-xen-unstable by default. 2. If ''yes'' for 1st question, which QEMU upstream will be used in Xen

Hi everybody, this e-mail is to let you know that the OpenMirage project is seeking to become a Xen.org hosted project. The prospective project lead of the Mirage Project - Anil Madhavapeddy - has requested a Review of the Mirage Project to become an Xen.org Incubation project. In line with Xen Project Governance (see http://www.xen.org/projects/governance.html), in particular sections -

Xen Community, I have a team of people frantically creating manpages for the xe command and all of it''s 361 subcommands. The initial source documentation is in asciidoc but also saved as Docbook. From docbook we transform to epub, html, manpage and pdf. This is currently being hosted in a subversion server at a Seattle area college and we''d like to move it to the xen-org

Hey We have a static analyzer setup for Xen called Coverity. It allows the code to be inspected for bugs and such. Originally I setup this so that we could make sure that there are no bugs that cause security issues - and as such invited only folks on the security Xen mailing list. But there are other folks who I am sure would like to contribute and as Coverity is pretty amazing at analyzing

Hello all, I hope that it now works and there is no longer problems with my mailsystem. It could be that it already worked but it doesn''t look like because the mail don''t came back from the list. I am trying to setup stubdomains for my running domains on Xen 4.2. I read this wiki articles: http://wiki.xen.org/wiki/StubDom

Following discussion, and a bit of slip to allow better contributions from those who''ve been away for the Chinese New Year, the plan for 4.1 now looks like this. We intend to go into code freeze at the end of the week, after which patches even for bugfixes will be much harder to get into the tree. We are here: | Feature code freeze | | Bugfixes are allowed provided they are

Goodmorning, I''m currently playing with XEN/arm on my Allwinner A20 (cubieboard2) I would like to get the XENFB driver working on domU. But currently in xen/arm there''s no support for VFB, atleast qemu is not supported. But this video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=po1IeElg8tg and this one http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Km6gBnIqaWo is showing a working framebuffer. So there are

Hi all, you probably have all heard by now that the Xen Project Advisory Board (a group of vendors who provide funds to the Xen Project that are intended to be used for the good of the community) recently created the Test Framework Working Group.http://wiki.xenproject.org/wiki/AB_WG/Test_Frameworkcontains more information about the group. The working group had its first meeting a few weeks

This information will be mirrored on the Xen 4.4 Roadmap wiki page: http://wiki.xen.org/wiki/Xen_Roadmap/4.4 We''re nearly to the completion of the code freeze, scheduled for tomorrow. After the code freeze, only bug fixes and features marked as "blockers" will be considered. At the moment, the only feature considered a blocker is experimental PVH dom0 support. In early RCs,

Hi all, I wanted to let you know that I feel I need to step down as leader of the Virtualisation SIG. When I originally was approached by KB to do this, it was always clear that this would be a temporary thing until the SIG got going. At the time, only Xen and CentOS folks were involved with the SIG. Since then, we added oVirt and Docker maintainers, have a total of 5 maintainers and built good

Moving to public discussion... This was found with Xen hypervisor version supporting device unplugging and the domU kernel having net-/blkfront and pci platform built-in (or as module). The block device is defined as hda and the NIC type=ioemu (so theoretically guests without pv support would work, too). Since both drivers are present, the kernel tries to unplug the emulated devices and

Hi all, please reply to this thread of you have any agenda items that you would like to add. Meeting minutes of past minutes are under * http://wiki.centos.org/SpecialInterestGroup/Virtualization "Meetings" * The TODO list is under http://wiki.centos.org/SpecialInterestGroup/Virtualization/Status (just updated it) * Draft roadmap is under "Roadmap" and probably needs

Does xen-4.1.1 really require python 2.7 (as per Ubuntu packaging) or will it actually work on python 2.6? I am trying to backport it to an Ubuntu LTS version and would rather not have to bring in Python 2.7 if possible. -- Alex Bligh

Hi everybody, just a quick reminder that the Xen Hackathon is in Oracle, March 6-8, Santa Clara, CA, USA. We have originally planned for about 25 people, but already we have 14 people signed up. If you are planning to attend please sign up quickly, such that I get a feeling for the number of attendees. I can then go back to Oracle and see whether we can accommodate more people than we
