In Timo's thread about RAM today, I noticed dmidecode and I got the data for my Dell Dimension 2400 (Celeron CPU) box, which is below. I won this box in a raffle, during February 2005. After I got the box, I got conflicting information, from Crucial.com and from Dell Latin America, regarding the maximum RAM configuration. To be conservative, I bought two 256 MB DIMMS from Crucial.com, early

List- I know this may be slightly off topic and if so tell me to hit up the emu-discuss mailing list, but does anyone know how to detect the difference between a guest that is being fully emulates using qemu and a guest that is running para-virtualized using KVM? I have and when I inspect the CPUs I see the following.... # cat /proc/cpuinfo processor : 0 vendor_id : GenuineIntel cpu family

Some people have reported that the menu doesn't display any memory information on some machines. I have implemented the 3.3.7 Memory Module Information (Type 6, Obsolete) hoping it solves the problem (CLI only right now).

Well, after much trial and tribulation I got to the point I could nfs mount the CentOS 6.0 i386 iso image and try an install. So I stuck in the net install CD (latest from CentOS), mounted the nfs iso image and gave it several shots. It goes swimmingly until I click "write disks". Then there's a kernel panic. This with both the graphic and text mode installs. As mentioned,

SMBIOS table pass-through is useful in supporting vendor/OEM specific functionality in HVM guests. There are numerous OEM software packages and drivers that depend on having certain SMBIOS tables surfaced in a guest for their proper functioning. This also includes drivers and software needed for device pass-through. This series of patches introduces support for SMBIOS pass-through in the

The following patches are a cleaned up version of the HVM SMBIOS patches I submitted last Friday. Differences include (1) SMBIOS is no longer optional for HVM domU''s. (2) The refactoring I did of hvmloader wasn''t really necessary, so I got rid of it. (3) The patches have been tested on changeset 10671:b20580cf7fc1bfe5119597bb5b576cdd020551d5 (4) The versions of strcpy() and

For some reason, half of the patches I posted on Friday for HVM SMBIOS support haven''t shown up yet. I''m going to try to post a version of them reworked for changeset 11076:f328519053f5a444af475ec10dc8089a0b176e3f in a few moments, so please ignore the previous posts. Thanks!

Hi guys, Does anybody knows if there is an option to set a binary file for smbios? Currently, I'm doing this approach: <qemu:commandline> <qemu:arg value='-smbios'/> <qemu:arg value='file=/var/run/libvirt/qemu/smbios_type_1.bin'/> </qemu:commandline> Has libvirt a method as <smbios mode='host'/> ? -- Julio Cesar Faracco

Passthrough support for the SMBIOS structures including three new DMTF defined types and support for OEM defined tables. Passed in SMBIOS types override the default internal values. Default values can be enabled for the new type 22 portable battery using a xenstore flag. All other new DMTF defined and OEM structures will only be added to the SMBIOS table if passthrough values are present.

All, What is the current minimum required SMBIOS version for Xen? Assuming it is not already, the SMBIOS version on the platform were to be raised to 2.5, would there be issues?

[HVM] [SMBIOS] Duplicate UUID into serial number in SMBIOS tables. Windows zeroes out the UUID in the SMBIOS tables, but the identifier is often needed by systems management code.

The series "HVM firmware passthrough" series in Jan 2013 from Ross Philipson cause two regressions for HVM guests which sadly found their way into the Xen 4.3 release. The first regression causes an incorrect count of tables to be placed in the main header, and can be seen by running dmidecode in any applicable HVM domain. The second regression found its way into the public ABI, making

As the title, any issues about that? thanks, Yibin Shen _______________________________________________ Xen-devel mailing list Xen-devel@lists.xensource.com http://lists.xensource.com/xen-devel
