similar to: inclusion of figlet source

Is there a way to discovery how much free memory I still have to use in a new domain? Another question is about cpu usage. I guess that xen scheduler allocate a fixed time slice for all virtual machines and does not make any idea if the virtual machine is using or not using all this time, right? How I can identify if CPU is the bottleneck? Thanks! -- Flávio Bruno Leitner

The unstable tree now includes support for SMP guests, i.e. domains which run on multiple cpus. SMP guests can use between 1 and 32 virtual cpus, even if the machine has fewer physical cpus. The code is highly experimental and performance will improve over time. To use SMP guests: - enable option CONFIG_SMP in the Linux 2.6 kernel config - dom0 will boot with upto the number of physical cpus in

Hi, Some questions here : 1. Is there a way to compile kernel 2.6.10 or 2.6.9-mm1 with xen 2.0? I tried both (with mkbuildtree from linux-2.6.9-xen-sparse), and both failed (on different places). My primary goal is to use reiser4 on both xen-0 and xen-U kernel, so I''m more interested in -mm kernel. 2. If I use kernel 2.4.27 (xen-U), top doesn''t show correct cpu usage

This hacked up version of figlet contributes a supprisingly large proportion of the Coverity issues found under xen/ (and therefore attributed against Xen) Figlet can be found in all distros, so make use of it. We keep xen.flf (being the Xen figlet font) and replace the hacked up octal transform with a short python script. The Xen Makefile has been tweaked in such a way that it still prints the

All- I''m wondering if there is a guide or a general Getting Started for porting Xen to different architectures. I''m interested in supporting the arm platform. Any help or direction is greatly appreciated... Thanks! Carl - -- "There are 10 types of people in the world: Those who understand binary and those that don''t."

From sf.net/xen I have obtained xen2.0 and brought xen2.0 stable up on FC2. I am trying to find out a way to obtaining a tar file of xen2.0testing, without bk. I may have overlooked something here, helpful corrections solicited. Thanks in advance. -- Woody Marvel LTC Open Source Projects tel: 503-578-3833/775-3833 email: marvel@us.ibm.com

hello, I''m running XEN 2.0 on IBM ThinkPad T23. Now the weird thing is that I get two different outputs from /sbin/lspci depending on whether I run 2.6.8.1-xen0 or 2.6.8.1-bproc. In particular the output from 2.6.8.1-xen0 seems to be missing those 4 lines 0000:00:01.0 PCI bridge: Intel Corp. 82830 830 Chipset AGP Bridge (rev 02) 0000:00:1e.0 PCI bridge: Intel Corp. 82801BAM/CAM PCI

I rebooted xenU from console (dom2) and exited (ctr-]). xm list does not report 2 anymore yet I can log into 2 via console and it is running just fine. Is this a bug?

hi, am starting to play with XEN - the virtualisation project (http://xen.sf.net). i''ll give some background first of all and then the question - at the bottom - will make sense [when posting to lkml i often get questions asked that are answered by the background material i also provide... *sigh*] each virtual machine requires (typically) its own physical ram (a chunk of the

Hello there, I am looking around for days where I can dig some information on how to build Xen on FreeBSD... Does anybody here have any good doc / pointer on how to find it... BTW on xen-unstable there no FreeBSD tree... ? ;( where is it then ? Many thanks /Xavier -- Xavier Beaudouin - Unix System Administrator & Projects Leader.

Just did a quick scan for that error message in the kernel source. Turns out it''s triggered in net/bridge/br_fdb.c:289. if (!is_valid_ether_addr(addr)) return -EADDRNOTAVAIL; Interestingly enough, it''s claiming that the mac addy isn''t any good! 8-( I''ll go add a printk line to that to see if I can determine what kind of data

I''m continuing to work on making a new XenCD as previously discussed here. In the course of that work, I''ve generated (actually, currently stuck on) the enclosed crash dump. Thought I''d forward it for interest. To head off questions, you''ll see references to a very large initrd (~114 Mb). The Xen dump may or not be related to this unusual usage.

Hi folks, I''m trying to use the atropos scheduler with Xen. Couple of questions: - the scheduling param *has* to be specified at boot time right, or does Xen allow changing the scheduling scheme at run time?? - xm help atropos gives a very vague message at best, perhaps we could make it more elaborate: xm atropos DOM SLICE PERIOD LATENCY XTRATIME o is DOM the vm ID or the vm NAME (as

Just to error test my own thinking here, there seems to be the following options for remote graphical access to a running domian vm. Besides the normal network service via a port and a raw console, the options are straight X, VNC, and XN. X - supports a single X window running on a local XServer, tied to a single process on the remote system. No remote desktop VNC - comes in two flavors of

Hi, Currently TLS wraparound segments are a problem in Xen, since the kernel needs to be protected by keeping the user space segments out of kernel space. A few weeks ago Roland, Jakub and myself brainstormed about this problem. One of the things that came up is that the positive (glibc private data) and -ve (TLS) data are not generally used at the same time. This lead to one of us (I
