similar to: blktap block size

Hi,mail list members, As needed by my test, blktap/blktap2 modules have to work after new VMs start.Maybe the line about disk in the vm creation configure file is the right position where I should be supposed to specify the function of blktap/blktap2 modules.But specifically I don''t know how to configure the disk line.Who can help me? hxk

Package: xen-utils-4.0 Version: 4.0.1-1 Severity: normal Due to license issues this version of Xen does not include the blktap2 backend (tapdisk2) and associated utilities (vhd-util, etc.). The decision was made to disable the blktap v1 kernel module (the default is now blktap2). As a result we can't use any tap devices which means worse performance than previousl. Since blktap1 was available

Hi there, It is my understanding that blktap2 has been removed from the built of xen-hypervisor-{i386|amd64} because of the OpenSSL licensing and its incompatibility with the GPL, but apparently it is possible to not use OpenSSL at all. What is your thoughts about this? Could blktap2 support be added? Should it be packaged separately and be sent to non-free? Thomas -------- Original Message

Hi. These patches add the output function for blktap statistics into xentop. Currently, xentop outputs only blkback statistics, and not blktap statistics. By these patches, xentop is made cover both blkback and blktap. In xen, back-end driver has two types; blkback and blktap. Blkback driver is old back-end driver. Blktap driver is new back-end driver and is recommended currently. Usage of both

Hi guys, i''ve just installed xen 4.0. Since always blktapctl has never worked on my dell 1950III. I even posted a bug but so far i can''t use tap:aio or similar. I thought that with version 4 this would work, but it didn''t. I still see syslog errors from blktap version 1.0.0. Today i wanted to try version 2 I found on the xen/tools source folder. I compiled the source

Hi All, I sent the patch to allow blktap to be able to booted as system bolume for PV-on-HVM. However, there was a problem that hdN and xvdN were not able to be specified at the same time. I made the patch to correct it as follows. - Whether hdN is defined first is checked. - If hdN is defined, xvdN is not replaced with hdN.

Hi, I''d like to use the blktap utils from https://github.com/xen-org/blktap because of the mirror feature, as the blktap utils comming with xen does not support this. Could anybody explain why there are two different blktap utils (one in git and one comming with xen source) and how to compile the one from git so that it works with libxl ? Any pointers greatly appreciated ;-) Thanks
