similar to: [PATCH] hvmloader: write extra memory in CMOS

RFC v2 of this series This series implements a basic test job for OVMF guest. The test case will install an OVMF guest and try to boot it. It is also possible to derive a debian HVM installation test case from ts-ovmf-debian-install - the only difference should be the BIOS option. I tested running the test script without specifying BIOS, it worked fine. I just didn''t figure out a

EFI_XEN_OVMF_INFO is defined to accept configurations from hvmloader. It must match the definition on Xen side. XenInfo is extended to include necessary bits as well. Currently only E820 map is in use.

This issue should be addressed in Xen and I''m

Hi all, this patch series by Wei Liu implements a simple Xen APIC module and use it to deliver MSI/MSIX for Xen HVM guests. The second version of this series includes the "or later" copyright clause for xen_apic.c and a fix to the return value of xen_apic_mem_read (thanks Peter for finding it out).

We''ve been hitting the following issue on a variety of hosts and recent Xen/dom0 version combinations. Here''s an excerpt from our latest: Xen: 4.1.4 (xenbits @ 23432) Dom0: 3.7.1-x86_64 BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at 000000000000001c IP: [<ffffffff8141a301>] evtchn_from_irq+0x11/0x40 PGD 0 Oops: 0000 [#1] SMP Modules linked in: ebt_comment

Hi All, I am sure this has been answered somewhere in the list in the past, but I can''t find it. I was wondering if the linux guest netfront driver has GRO support in it. tcpdump shows packets coming in with 1500 bytes, although the eth0 in dom0 and the vif corresponding to the linux guest in dom0 is showing that they receive large packet: In dom0: eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr

The code to detect fragments in checksum_setup() was missing for IPv4 and too eager for IPv6. (It transpires that Windows seems to send IPv6 packets with a fragment header even if they are not a fragment - i.e. offset is zero, and M bit is not set).

Hi Jan Back before 4.3 release you complaint about the hardcoded modprobe for blktap / blktap2 in xencommons script. I started to look into it this week and tried to do this modprobe automatically in libxl (that''s the idea we discussed before 4.3 IIRC). Unfortunately I didn''t manage to find any canonical documents on how a user space process can trigger a modprobe.

Hi, I just tried the live CD for CentOS 5.0 on a desktop computer and decided to see if suspend worked. It seems it did, but I'm unable to start the machine again. It's a DIY system with an Asus K8V-X motherboard[1], an AMD Clawhammer 3200+ and 1 GB of Kingston ECC RAM. The system has been perfectly stable despite being utterly abused on a daily basis for almost 3 years. I've tried:

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 dependence is undesirable and logically incorrect. It''s undesirable because Xen network protocol should not depend on a OS-specific constant. It''s incorrect because the ring slots required doesn''t correspond to the number of frags a SKB has (consider compound page frags). This patch removes this dependence by correctly counting the ring slots required.

After our office upgraded to Windows 10, time sync stopped working with the Windows workstations. This used to work fine with Windows 7 and still works with linux domain members (although that's not surprising). The Windows 10 workstations ended up operating off the CMOS clock. We didn't notice this for a long time since the CMOS clock drift is slow, but after several months users started

It is just a wrapper around select(2).
