So, we just moved to some much faster hardware. intel q6600 CPU, 8Gb unbuffered ECC, ICH7 sata (2x1TB disks) - and we were irritated and puzzled to find that the new setup had really, really slow I/O. The odd thing is that the performance is fine if you just mount the LV directly from the Dom0... but if you xm block-attach it to the Dom0 and then mount it, you get 1/10th the speed. we are

I have installed dom0 Wheezy 64 bit on Dell PowerEdge T310 with kernel from package and xen-unstable. System is in Uefi mode and booted with grub-efi-amd64. Booting without xen efibootmgr works, while with xen not, efivars kernel module is loaded but show this message: efibootmgr Fatal: Couldn''t open either sysfs or procfs directories for accessing EFI variables. Try ''modprobe

Hello, I seem to be having some troubles regarding the latest 2.6.31.6 and 2.6.32.9 Xen dom0 pv_ops trees. Our platform: -Xen 3.4.3-rc3 (also tried 3.4.2 on 2.6.31.6 pv_ops dom0) -2.6.32.9 pv_ops dom0 kernel, perhaps a week old checkout from xen/stable git (can provide changeset if requested). -100+ domU''s, all PV. Ever since we switched to a pv_ops dom0 kernel (we were using 2.6.26

Hi Everyone, git noob. simple question, how do i get a previous release from jeremy''s git repository? Right now, I can get the latest (2.6.32.9) by doing the following: git clone git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jeremy/xen.git linux-2.6-xen $ cd linux-2.6-xen $ git pull I tried doing a "git tag -l" when in linux-2.6-xen directory, but that did not print the tag

my system configuration xen 3.4.2, oprofile 0.9.5( xenoprof patched ), dom0( jeremy''s pvops kernel 2.6.31.6 - patched dullor''s xenoprof patch ), domU( vanilla kernel 2.6.32 with paravirt enabled ), distribution( ubuntu 9.10 ) In passive mode, xenoprof seems to work well, opreport showed good information. but, in active mode, it seems not to be done correctly. my command is

Hi, is there a memory limit for Linux pv_ops domU ? On my Dom0 (2.6.31.6-dae-dom0-00751-g60e0545 / Xen 3.4.2-2) I have a guest setup with 15600MB, when I start it, Linux (2.6.32.8) see only 8GB : Feb 17 07:31:04 pacman kernel: [ 0.000000] Built 1 zonelists in Zone order, mobility grouping on. Total pages: 2066366 On Dom0, I have CONFIG_XEN_MAX_DOMAIN_MEMORY=32 If I do a "xm

All functions referenced via __PV_IS_CALLEE_SAVE() need to be assembler functions, as those functions calls are hidden from gcc. In case the kernel is compiled with "-fzero-call-used-regs" the compiler will clobber caller-saved registers at the end of C functions, which will result in unexpectedly zeroed registers at the call site of the related paravirt functions. Replace the C

I just noticed something interesting with the pv_ops dom0 kernel that I built from Jeremy''s git tree. When I run ''cat /proc/cpuinfo'' the output shows the processors have 0.000 MHz. Everything runs fine I just thought it was interesting. processor : 3 vendor_id : AuthenticAMD cpu family : 16 model : 4 model name : AMD Phenom(tm) II X4

Hi, I am trying to install Vmware (Exsi 4.0) as a VM on Xen (VM-on-VM). My platform is Intel S5500HC motherboard and Xeon E5502 processor, 4G Ram. Xen 3.4.1, dom0 is linux 2.6.31.6 pv_ops kernel on FC12. The Vmware installation was failing with "Failed to load lvmdriver" error. On modifing the network model to e1000 (vif = [''type=ioemu, bridge=xenbr0, model=e1000'' ])

Hello. log of the crashing boot process: http://pasik.reaktio.net/xen/pv_ops-dom0-debug/pv_ops-dom0-bootlog-14-xen331-linux-2.6.29-rc6-crash.txt 2.6.29-rc5 based pv_ops dom0 works on the same computer.. with the same Xen version. I tried with and without pci=nomsi. adding ''noapic'' doesn''t seem to help (I need that with 2.6.29-rc5 to make it work). Any ideas

Hi, i''ve new hardware for my XEN server. It boots pv_ops kernel now. But with my pv_ops kernel the server doesn''t power off. Even there isn''t this messages for it. When i boot a 2.6.24 from Ubuntu it power off. Regards, Stefan Kuhne _______________________________________________ Xen-users mailing list Xen-users@lists.xensource.com

Instead of using six globally visible paravirt ops structures combine them in a single structure, keeping the original structures as sub-structures. This avoids the need to assemble struct paravirt_patch_template at runtime on the stack each time apply_paravirt() is being called (i.e. when loading a module).

In the spirit of improving communication of Fedora Xen plans to the world, below is a mail I recently circulated in the Fedora community about the direction for Xen-ified kernels from Fedora 9 and onwards. The short story, is that we intend to ship hypervisor & userspace based on Xen 3.2.0 tree, and a kernel based on latest LKML pv_ops tree and patches ontop of that to support Dom0 and

im trying to do pcipassthrough to a hvm domain on xen 3.4.2 with jeremy''s pv_ops dom0 kernel 2.6.31.6 on debian lenny. dom0 kernel indicates that pciback cmdline options are unknown, but config shows CONFIG_XEN_PCIDEV_BACKEND=y is compiled in. is pciback broken on this kernel or something? all relevant information i can think is here, let me know if theres anything else you''d
