Hi all, I have copy hvmachine-dm to /etc/xen/ , and start hvmachine, all is the same, failed. this is the message of running "ifconfig" linux-7b6o:/home/james/Desktop # ifconfig eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:21:70:99:97:D4 inet addr:147.2.207.55 Bcast:147.2.207.255 Mask:255.255.255.0 inet6 addr: fe80::221:70ff:fe99:97d4/64 Scope:Link UP

On Xen-3.3.0, domain0 Megaraid SAS (SAS 1068 controller) driver is not loading correctly if vtd support in Xen is enabled. It fails at the point of initializing firmware. I wasn''t seeing this error with Xen-3.2.2-rc3 (Unstable version), though with vtd disabled in Xen-3.3.0, it is working. Looks like a degrade problem. Any clues? Thx, Venkat

Hi I have a doubt regarding Mini-OS and Xen. If it is true that Xen reserves in the virtual address space the top 64MB on 32bit systems and 168MB in PAE systems, doesn''t it exist with a Mini-OS kernel which has only 32MB in size i.e. going by its default config file? Obviously I''m missing something. Regards, Bhaskar. _______________________________________________ Xen-devel

I''m experiencing total grant table corruption on a system and I''m hoping my symptoms will ring a bell with a member of the Xen developer community. The setup is Xen 4.0.0-RC2 (OpenSUSE 11.2 package) on a Nehalem system. The sole guest instance is 64bit FreeBSD running in HVM mode, a single vcpu, and a PCI passed-through LSI Logic 1068e SAS controller. FreeBSD is running

Hi, I''ve run linux off an on for several years. Recently I''ve been using windows (simply for ease), but have gotten so fed up with stability and what not. I had read good things about xen, so I installed suse and was hoping to not give up the 10% of things that I need windows for. I''ve still got windows on a partition and was wondering if I could boot that, but wanted

At present IA64 Xen doesn''t support MSI for passthrough, so let''s not expose MSI/MSI-X capabilities to IA64 HVM guest for now. Thanks, -- Dexuan _______________________________________________ Xen-devel mailing list Xen-devel@lists.xensource.com http://lists.xensource.com/xen-devel

I have a system whose cpu can run a hvm. I have some PCI devices that I would like to be able to pass through straight to the domU Specifically, I want to pass through a device to a Windows VM. No, I explicitly do _not_ have a system with Intel''s VT-d technology. In an ideal world, I would be able to pass the graphics and some arbitrary non-graphics PCI cards direct to the DomU.

Hi, I am working on pass through using Xen-3.4 unstable. I am having trouble in installing HVM domain. Configuration file lokks like below: # Kernel image file. kernel = "/usr/lib/xen/boot/hvmloader" # The domain build function. HVM domain uses ''hvm''. builder=''hvm'' # Initial memory allocation (in megabytes) for the new domain. memory

hello, I would like to map (Read/Write) pages owned by a HVM guest from my Dom0 Linux kernel module. I have access to the "machine frame numbers" of these pages. 1. What is the right interface to do this? kmap needs ''struct page'' ptrs which I doubt exist for pages owned by a HVM guest. Is there a hypercall to do this then? 2. Do I need to modify the HVM behavior in

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.

Due to recent changes in timer handling (specifically building hpet emulation on top of Xen system time and ensuring it is monotonic), I wonder if it now makes sense to: 1) change hvm default for hpet to 1 (was 0) 2) change hvm timer_mode default from 0 to 2 I encouraged adding the hvm hpet parameter and defaulting it to 0 because the virtual hpet was not reliable and many guests/versions

Your decision on what platform to go with depends on your requirements of course. Some observations from my end: Running a non-HVM platform limits you currently to OS where the OS itself has been para-virtualized. An HVM-enabled platform enables your future for changes that you may not have planned for at this time. Also, keep in mind that as you look at the management tools available for
