Does anyone know if the Xen 3.1.0 kernels as distributed in the "open source" tarballs (x86_64 version) are vulnerable to the recently-announced vulnerability CVE-2007-4573? IF so, is there any plan to release patched tarballs anytime soon? Thanks Steve Timm -- ------------------------------------------------------------------ Steven C.

HI, guys Recently,I met a problem. Xen''s version: 3.4.3 guest os:redhat 4.8 32bit And xen.independent_wallclock = 1 has been set. The time of guest os change to be fast suddenly, about 2000 second. because the change is too wild, ntp didn''t sync to the ntp server''s time. my application is dependent on the systme time. And this occurs a lot of times. I don''t

I have seen the following kernel panic 5 times today on three different machines, two of which had been stable for months and one of which is a brand new install. We are running the x86_64 xen kernel and userland tools that came in the Xen 3.1.0 tarball from xen.org, on top of scientific linux (redhat clone) 5.1 or 5.2. <Aug/28 12:21 pm>Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at

Hi: Reading Red Hat''s Website and a printed manual of RH184 (Red Hat Virtualization course) I see that RHEL 5 only supports RHEL 4.5 and RHEL 5 as paravirtualized guests. So I asume this is the same situation for CentOS 5, right? What''s the dependency between Xen versions for paravirtualized guests? I ask this questions because I got this experiences: 1. Running CentOS 5 as

Has anyone yet figured out what it would take to make Xen run on top of the Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6 beta? We are heavily invested in Xen under RHEL5 (actually a redhat clone) distribution, but already the xen kernel they are shipping with update 4 and 5 is shaky and has bugs which they don''t seem to be in a hurry to fix. Basically I am wondering if Redhat 6 is just going to have

I installed 64-bit xen 3.1.0 (from xensource.com tarballs) on three new machines today, using a configuration setup that I''ve used successfully many times before. However, I encountered a new problem.

I have a Xen DomU configuration that was made in the days before libvirt and virt-install. In this configuration I have: vif = [ ''mac=00:16:3e:05:06:01, bridge=xenbr0'', ''mac=00:16:3e:05:06:0a, bridge=xenbr1'' ] and then in xend-config.sxp I define (network-script my-network-bridge) where my-network-bridge is in the scripts directory and looks like this:

I have the xensource 3.1.0 x86_64 tarball installed over a RHEL5 clone distribution. The "ethtool" utility only returns the following information: [root@fermigrid5 etc]# ethtool eth0 Settings for eth0: Link detected: yes [root@fermigrid5 etc]# Since I have no vanilla-installed rhel5 machines with which to compare, I am not sure if I am dealing with a bug in the ethtool (whose

Hi, I have been able to run 32 bit virtual machines on a 64 bit machine quite nicely with xen3.1 but sometimes when running yum the messages "do_wp_page: bogus page at address 0070d638" and "kernel: VM: killing process yum" and yum just stops working. I also get Kernel Panic. Does anyone have any idea, what could be the probem? Thanks, Ricardo

It seems that with their specific Xen packages, Debian likes to go against the norm, and rather than calling the Xen bridging device something sensible like "xenbr0", they rename the main physical ethernet device "eth0" to "peth0" and create "eth0" as the Xen bridge (as far as I can tell, anyways). Anyone know where exactly they do this so I can reverse it?

I''m running xen 3.1.2 as bastardized by RedHat on a redhat clone operating system. I''m using the xendomains script as it came out of the box to start my domU''s at boot and stop them at shutdown. There are three problems right now: 1) left to its own devices, service xendomains stop attempts to do "xm save" on each of the domU''s. that takes quite a

Hello list, I tried to install Xen 3.1.0 on Scientific Linux (RHEL4), but this mission failed.. Hope you can help me by finding the reason for my problem. I downloaded the xen sources from http://bits.xensource.com/oss-xen/release/3.1.0/src.tgz/xen-3.1.0-src.tgz and compiled them by running "make" and "./install.sh". This seemed to work. After setting up grub like this,

When I boot from a regular centos kernel, I get this for a mac 00:19:db:e5:91:4f somehow it is getting reversed. Could I have messed something up when I built the kernel?

I have a single VM (of 11) that has a recurring problem. This image has moved from machine to machine, with the problem following it. This image has been rebuilt from scratch, and the problem recurred. It would appear that there is something in the behaviour of this VM which causes it to crash and causes Xend to become unhappy. The problem presents as: Domain crashes, becomes zombie. xm
