similar to: [PATCH] blktap2: Fix off-by-one error in driver lookup

Hi, I''ve been testing Xen 4.0.1 with kernel 2.6.34.5 + http://gentoo-xen-kernel.googlecode.com/files/xen-patches-2.6.34-4.tar.bz2, and one of the things that I noticed immediately is there are two problems with tapdisk and this combination. First, the syntax "disk = [''tap:tapdisk:aio: ..." no longer works. When tested with HVM domU, it boots, but there was no disk

We''ve been working on getting XEN 4.1.2 validated for internal use and have run into what appears to be a livelock induced failure in properly freeing a blktap2 device. We ported the blktap2 driver from Dan Stodden''s GIT tree into 3.2.x which is a reasonably straight forward process. We are also running the toolchain with a patch which Ian Campbell posted in order to get xl to

Hi all, i am having some problem with making blktap2 to work on ubuntu 12.04 can you please help me on this.

Hi. I make xen and xen-tools from source (xen-testing.hg). I tried to use tap:tapdisk:vhd, but blktap2 driver not available (in xend.log: WARNING: using deprecated blktap module) How i can install this driver ? My kernel "2.6.32-4-xen-amd64" from Debian Sid.

Hi. Let me know if I should be reporting this elsewhere for reasons that I''m about to detail below. I''m fiddling with Xen 4.1.1 on Debian squeeze running kernel 3.0. I was really exciting about the Kronos project bringing the API to Debian/Ubuntu so I thought I''d give it a try. I''m find myself facing a number of challenges working with a local lvm based SR.

Hi, When I do the "make install-tools" with xen-4.2-unstable, there are some errors about "warn_unused_result". Is it the error in code or the error in the compiling environment?

Hi Guys, I''m working with: 1. xen 4.1; 2. dom0 ubuntu kernel 3.2 I''m trying to run remus with disk replication (I can run without disk replication). But I read I need to use tap2 < http://nss.cs.ubc.ca/remus/doc.html>. Well... first I tried to create a pv guest. Then I take this guest.cfg: 1. name = "ubuntu-ha" 2. memory = 256 3. disk =

For those wanting to know how to mount filesystems through blktap2 here is how you do it, as I couldn''t find it fully documented. The instructions on the blktap2 readme file are rather out of date. You can mount them under Dom0 like so. e.g. to mount a vhd file, sudo xm block-attach 0 tap2:vhd:/home/xen/xenwin7-persist.vhd xvdb w 0 Now the device should appear under /dev ls

Hi All, I'm seeing tapdisk processes not being terminated after a HVM vm is shutdown or migrated away.

Hello, I have been playing around with Remus on Xen 4.0.1, attempting to fail-over for an HVM domU. I''ve run into some problems that I think could be related to tapdisk2 and its interaction with how one sets up Remus disk replication in the domU config file. A few things I''ve noticed: -The tap:remus:backupHostIP:port|aio:imagePath notation does not work for me, although this
