similar to: Which bios is hvmloader using ?

Hello, there's still a small problem when compiling on hpux, after running configure the variable AR is not set in the Makefile. The compilation fails because it tries to run $(AR) -rc and thus tries to run '-rc' ... Adding AR=ar in the Makefile fixes the problem, but I suppose there must be a better way ? Thanks and keep up the good work ! Peter. -- Peter Van Biesen Adj.

Hello, I found out what the problem in my other thread was, now I need to solve it: I need to port a modified Bochs bios to Xen x86. However, a file of the original source seems missing: acpi-dsdt.hex. It''s neither in the tools/firmware/hvmloader/acpi directory nor in the tools/firmware/rombios one. Also applying the diffs or manually editing the source probably won''t work since

HI Dom0 is CentOS 5.2, 64-bit, Xen version 3.2.1 and 3.2.2. I got Fiber SAN disk system and 2 servers and i am making shared LUN available to both servers. Then i got multipath layer running on both Dom0s and so Xen is seeing device-mapper file, instead of two /dev/sdX devices, then i have setup Xen domU (HVM Windows 2003) using /dev/mapper/sharedLUN as physical storage to my windows server.

This patch set mainly allows the user to build a seabios or rombios only version of hvmloader. In addition, when building a seabios only hvmloader, Option ROMs like vgabios and etherboot are no longer required, and therefore can be disabled from the build. Dependency on the bcc compiler can also be avoided the same way. v2: Separate patches for separate issues Introduced config option to

Attached simple patch modifies the rombios and hvmloader Makefiles to default to an 8-way bochs bios for the hvmloader. Is there a reason to not define the mp config table by default for >1 processors (8), in the repository? Seems like using the hvm guest config file can the methodolody to describe a UP guest regardless of the mptables. Defaulting the rombios to MP would allow users to

This patch adds an implementation of the TCG BIOS extensions to the Bochs BIOS and enables logging of boot measurements using the previously implemented support for TCPA ACPI tables. A low-level driver for a TPM TIS device and an Atmel device is provided. The implemented specification is described here:

Some firmware, such as OVMF relies on this value to get the size of extra memory above 4GB. Seabios in Xen doesn''t need this as it gets e820 directly from Xen. Rombios doesn''t read this value.

Hi, when user create the virtual machine, then: which code execute firstly, hvmloaer or qemu-dm? And virtual bios code are both in hvmloader and qemu-dm, which bios will be used to initialize the virutal device in qemu-dm? I think it must be one of them. -- View this message in context: http://xen.1045712.n5.nabble.com/virtual-bios-in-hvmloader-and-qemu-dm-tp4422719p4422719.html Sent from the

I have a self built system using an Intel D 920 processor and a MB that supports VT. I''m able to run HVM domains fine, but have trouble getting multiple VCPUs for these domains.

Hi, first of all, my name is Karsten and I am fairly new to xen. A former colleague of mine has set up a xen dom0 with 4 virtual machines runnig on it. A few months ago this colleague left the company. Last week our office Building has been hit by a lightning wich resulted in an power blackout. After the power went back again, the system booted and all but one of the virtual machines went

When booting HVMs with SeaBIOS, the BIOS itself takes care of extracting option ROMs from the PCI devices. These ROMs are usually provided with by the device model (qemu). Thus, hvmloader should not require any longer the rombios, stdvga, cirrusvga or etherboot ROMs to be present. Also, the 32bitbios_support.c file is specific to rombios and should not be built when building hvmloader with

Hi all, I have some puzzle about hvmloader in the path /tools/firmware/, they are: 1: Is hvmloader running in non-root mode? 2: If hvmloader runs in non-root mode, does it have its pagetable? when set GUEST_CR3 in vmcs? 3: How can I find the value of GUEST_RIP in vmcs is set to the entry point of hvmloader,when virtual machine do it first vm entry. Much Thanks! - henanwxr

Hi, I have 3.0.4-1 testing downloaded a week ago. I have enabled VT in the bios and rebuilt xen, but for some reason hvmloader does not get compiled and built. Under xen/tools/firmware I see hvmloader and when I try and do a make it complains of Install dev86 package to build firmware! (http://www.cix.co.uk/~mayday) Why is the hvmloader not built as part of Xen. I am using

The SeaBIOS ROM image may validly exceed 128k in size, it''s only our interface code that so far assumed that it wouldn''t. Remove that restriction by setting the base address depending on image size. Add a check to HVM loader so that too big images won''t result in silent guest failure anymore. Uncomment the intended build-time size check for rombios, moving it into a

Hi all: I am installing Windows XP SP2 on xen 3.0.4 with a VT able machine, but I can not find hvmloader in /usr/lib/xen/boot。I installed xen from source code, compile it, build it and installed it, does this matters? Then I installed xen 3.0.4 in Fedora6 by yum install xen* and copy the hvmloader to the former machine, It looks like winxp was started, but when I use vnc to connect to winxp, the

I installed XEN from source, since the binary did not install. The Xen source includes also tools/firmware/hvmloader To compile firmware it only shows a message: WARNING: Install dev86 package to build firmware! At the referred page http://www.cix.co.uk/~mayday I could not find anything about dev86. What do I need to do? I want to install as DomU2 Windows XP and need hvmloader. bye Ronald
