I''m currently working on moving storage services into their own domain and I''ve been looking at blktap2. I''ve been trying to get an image mounted with blktap2 and for some odd reason and tapdisk2 keeps hanging instead of quitting at the end. I haven''t removed any of the storage startup code at this point so everything should be as it normally is in xen-unstable.

HI, I am trying to install xen through yum. Here is what I did. [root@localhost Kishore]# yum install kernel-xen xen Setting up Install Process Resolving Dependencies --> Running transaction check ---> Package kernel.x86_64 0:2.6.31.9-174.fc12 set to be installed --> Processing Dependency: kernel-firmware >= 2.6.31.9-174.fc12 for package: kernel-2.6.31.9-174.fc12.x86_64

Hi everyone, I am very excited to see that dom0 pvops is finally coming close to working, so I wanted to give it a try. >From the description it was not clear to me which kernel to chose as base for the patches.hg, so I took the latest (that was ~ 2 weeks ago) kernel on git.kernel.org I could find (post-2.6.28 git tip at that point). I managed to more or less apply all of the patches in the

Hi there, I am starting a new thread to try and solve a problem I am having will slow network throughput to the XEN host (not to a domU). I have confirmed my problem occurs with PVOPS ''xen/master'' kernel as well using http://pasik.reaktio.net/xen/pv_ops-dom0-debug/config-2.6.31.6-pvops-dom0-xen-master-x86_64 as the .config. It also occurs with a forward ported xenified kernel

In the spirit of improving communication of Fedora Xen plans to the world, below is a mail I recently circulated in the Fedora community about the direction for Xen-ified kernels from Fedora 9 and onwards. The short story, is that we intend to ship hypervisor & userspace based on Xen 3.2.0 tree, and a kernel based on latest LKML pv_ops tree and patches ontop of that to support Dom0 and

Just wondering why kernel-2.6.32.23-170.xendom0.fc12.src.rpm cannot make itself into F14. It seems pretty stable. Why it cannot be just a package available via "yum install" . Anyway Fedora''s Libvirt has the best compatibility with Xen 4.0.1. It''s not too late switch back to Xen with PVOPS kernel. XenLinux 2.6.34.7 aka Suse is really dangerous . It outperforms pvops

Folks, The first release candidate for Xen 4.0.0 has been tagged and published. You can grab it from here: http://xenbits.xensource.com/xen-unstable.hg (tagged ''4.0.0-rc1'') Please test it! -- Keir _______________________________________________ Xen-devel mailing list Xen-devel@lists.xensource.com http://lists.xensource.com/xen-devel

Pasi, Thanks for putting that wiki page together for the dom0 kernels - it's something that has long been needed for pulling together information on those kernels. I know it's always a chore for me to find info on how to get/build a dom0 kernel if I don't like the one that's included with a distribution. Thanks! -Nick >>> On 2009/07/07 at 00:50, Pasi

Hello, I seem to be having some troubles regarding the latest 2.6.31.6 and 2.6.32.9 Xen dom0 pv_ops trees. Our platform: -Xen 3.4.3-rc3 (also tried 3.4.2 on 2.6.31.6 pv_ops dom0) -2.6.32.9 pv_ops dom0 kernel, perhaps a week old checkout from xen/stable git (can provide changeset if requested). -100+ domU''s, all PV. Ever since we switched to a pv_ops dom0 kernel (we were using 2.6.26

Hi, I have several servers Supermicro - running Xen 3.4.1 @ debian 5.0 x64 running without any issues for more than year. Now I bought new server with exactly same config and installed Ubuntu 10.04 x64 - Xen 4.0.1-rc4 - 2.6.32.16 pv_ops - base Ubuntu 10.04 install boot without issues - Xen 4.0.1-rc4 compiled and installed withou any problems - 2.6.32.16 pv_ops dom0 kernel with custom config.

Dear List, I have problems using Xen dom0 Kernel including the IMA Kernel Module (Linux Integrity Measurement - http://linux-ima.sourceforge.net/) The IMA supports only kernel > 2.6.32 and I dont know how to find and build a Xen dom0 kernel in version greater or equal than 2.6.32. There is just kernel 2.6.18-xen in the Mercurial repository which is normally used during the standard

Hi, i already tried to ask this and did not obtain any answer. Is remus is supported in Opensuse Linux actually ? Regards _______________________________________________ Xen-users mailing list Xen-users@lists.xensource.com http://lists.xensource.com/xen-users

I''ve been trying for several days to get a xen dom0 booting as described on Boris Derzhavets blog. I have been able to boot Jeremy Fitzhardinge''s pv_ops kernel under xen, but my X server wouldn''t start so I''ve been trying to get Andrew Lyon''s rebased opensuse patches to work. I have asked for help in the freenode ##xen channel but they

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

On a selection of boxes, ntpd running in Xen Dom0 reproducibly exhibits extermely high noise/jitter. Switching back to -default, non-xen kernel ntpd runs with very low jitter/noise. Question -- how can I ''tame'' ntpd noise & jitter when running in Dom0? Is the problem a config issue, or a bug? Already reported this downstream; everybody''s "stumped".

Hi all, I've been looking at the next steps to try to get Xen running fully on top of pv_ops. To that end, I've (just) started looking at one of the next major jobs --- i686 dom0 on pv_ops. There are still a number of things needing done to reach parity with xen-unstable: x86_64 xen on pv_ops Paravirt framebuffer/keyboard CPU hotplug Balloon kexec driver domains but it
