Hello, I surf the Xen web page, it mentioned that it ported to NetBSD and FreeBSD as well. I can''t find FreeBSD/xen source, where I can fetch it?

Just a suggestion of course. I would very much like to help out with testing even before the port is completely finished. -- Christian Laursen ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: IT Product Guide on ITManagersJournal Use IT products in your business?

It hasn''t been released yet. It has a couple of bugs and the pdb stub that we had been relying doesn''t work for us on top of trunk. I''m working on an alternative debugging mechanism that should be working shortly. I can''t give a date - but there is a lot of internal pressure to get it done. -Kip On Tue, 12 Oct 2004, Keichii Moto wrote:> Hello, > > I surf the Xen web page, it mentioned that it ported > to > NetBSD and FreeBSD as well.

I too would be interested in moderately testing this out. I''ve had a few requests from clients for a *BSD version of the xen vhosting... Of course I''d probably need a little help from our guinea pig Christian (or another) on how best to setup a virtual disk of FreeBSD. ;) Heck, I''ll take a bare-bones FreeBSD vbd image I can load as an OS starting point. *grin* On Thu, 2004-10-14 at 04:52, Kip Macy wrote:> > > > I would very much like to help out with testing even before the port is > > completely finished. > > > > If you really have the time for this, I''ll roll everything up and get it > out to you as soon as all the obvious bugs are fixed - it boots off a > vbd root and can be logged into remotely so it will be "Real Soon Now". > > > > -Kip > > > ------------------------------------------------------- > This SF.net email is sponsored by: IT Product Guide on ITManagersJournal > Use IT products in your business?

I was going to strip down the vbd image that I''ve been using for Ian. Unfortunately this won''t make it into 2.0. Perhaps the new VM debugger support and having a third port in the tree would warrant a "2.0.1" release. -Kip On Thu, 14 Oct 2004, Brian Wolfe wrote:> I too would be interested in moderately testing this out.

FreeBSD stable? was Re: [Xen-devel] Xen FreeBSD port is available?
I''ve had a VM up and running for about an hour and 45 minutes running the lmbench3 OS benchmarks. The results aren''t going to be that interesting as I have a lot of diagnostic code in the kernel. However, it does serve as a first order sanity check of stability. What all do you need to do beta testing? I have a loopback image (file) that I use that can probably be compressed down to 100MB. The i386-xeno tree more or less (one needs to add a few symlinks) just drops into a FreeBSD 5.2.1 tree. How stable do you need it to be? There is a known issue that I''m working around by disabling pre-faulting on a 64MB range of the VA. If you''re inclined to work on it as well I''ll send you a patch with the added debugging support I''ve added to xen. It has proven *extremely* useful. -Kip On Thu, 14 Oct 2004, Christian Laursen wrote:> Kip Macy <kmacy@eventdriven.org> writes: > > > > I would very much like to help out with testing even before the port is > > > completely finished. > > > > If you really have the time for this, I''ll roll everything up and get it > > out to you as soon as all the obvious bugs are fixed - it boots off a > > vbd root and can be logged into remotely so it will be "Real Soon Now". > > That sounds great.

If it is normal, we should be able to build one ourselves without any problems.

Re: FreeBSD stable? was Re: [Xen-devel] Xen FreeBSD port is available?
What Xen tree/changeset are you using? This was done against 1.1354 on unstable. I pulled 1.1450 and discovered that the domain builder API has changed, so I might as well take the time required to change the init path so that freebsd can be booted by the unified domain builder. -Kip On Tue, 26 Oct 2004, Christian Laursen wrote:> Kip Macy <kmacy@eventdriven.org> writes: > > > I''ve had a VM up and running for about an hour and 45 minutes running > > the lmbench3 OS benchmarks.
