similar to: Xen updates / TODO

Hello, I have asked this question in Xen-users mailing list too. But since it involves compiling from source, I realised asking this here makes more sense. Please forgive me for the spam. I am relatively new to Xen and need help compiling and installing Xen from source. Using some tutorials online, I have got Xen working with the ''yum install xen'' method. I used virt-manager

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

Hi all, These days I installed xen 4.3 unstable from source and recompiled qemu upstream with spice support. After xl create , the windows domU started successfully and spice client can visit the VDI. However, it display blue screen before entering the windows welcome screen. Is it a bug in current upstream qemu support? My domU configuration file is: builder =

If the domain''s NUMA node-affinity is being specified by the user/toolstack (instead of being automatically computed by Xen), we really should stick to that. This means domain_update_node_affinity() is wrong when it filters out some stuff from there even in "!auto" mode. This commit fixes that. Of course, this does not mean node-affinity is always honoured (e.g., a vcpu

I have compiled a version 1.1.2 (with xapi and xl support) and installed it in /usr/local. I started the

Hello everyone, Reposting with after having applied the (minor) fixes suggested by Wei and Jan. Allen, if you can tell us what you think about this, or suggest someone else to ask some feedback to, if you''re no longer involved with VT-d, that would be great! :-) -- As already discussed here [1], dealing with IOMMU faults in interrupt context may cause nasty things to happen, up to

So... it is theorized that XSA-108 is why amazon is rebooting. Is there any way for me to know when this update hits CentOS5 or xen4centos6? Do we know that it is *not* included in one of the centos patches?

Hi all, This is the second take of a patch that I submitted some time ago for allowing specifying vcpu pinning taking NUMA nodes into account. IOW, something like this: * "nodes:0-3": all pCPUs of nodes 0,1,2,3;  * "nodes:0-3,^node:2": all pCPUS of nodes 0,1,3;  * "1,nodes:1-2,^6": pCPU 1 plus all pCPUs of nodes 1,2    but not pCPU 6; v1 was a single patch, this is

Hello, This small series deals with some weirdness in the mechanism with which the credit scheduler choses what PCPU to tickle upon a VCPU wake-up. Details are available in the changelog of the first patch. The new approach has been extensively benchmarked and proved itself either beneficial or harmless. That means it does not introduce any significant amount of overhead and/or performances

Hello, Third version of the NUMA placement series Xen 4.2. All the comments received during v2''s review have been addressed (more details in single changelogs). The most notable changes are the following: - the libxl_cpumap --> libxl_bitmap renaming has been rebased on top of the recent patches that allows us to allocate bitmaps of different sizes; - the heuristics for deciding

We've been using CentOS 5 with Xen on our machines for a while now and have really grown to appreciate it. The lack of Xen for Centos 6 is the reason we haven't upgraded yet, but with Xen4CentOS6 we have all the tools we need. The concern some of are having is that when CentOS7 comes out, which will be probably less than a year, is that Xen support for CentOS6 will evaporate. I know this

Hi Ian-s, Two small patches for OSSTest. The first one turns on compiling the Linux modules for MegaRAID SAS, needed for the ultralisk machine in the Cambridge lab. The second adds an entry in the README file about the RebootTimeExtra host property, which I also needed to use for ulttralisk, as scrubbing 368GB of RAM really takes a lot! git://xenbits.xen.org/people/dariof/osstest.git misc Let
