[Xen-devel] Custom Guest OS not booting

Hi,
Im trying to get a grip on developing with xen and I''m trying to create
my own
guest os. The OS is very simple, it prints out a message and then exits.
Source listing below.
When I try to boot this image with xm create -c hello (hello just points
kernel to ivanos) one of two things happen. 

1)
It prints:
Using config file "hello".
Started domain IvanOS, console on port 9627
************ REMOTE CONSOLE: CTRL-] TO QUIT ********

I press return twice and it prints
************ REMOTE CONSOLE EXITED *****************

2)
it prints:
Using config file "hello".
Started domain IvanOS, console on port 9628
************ REMOTE CONSOLE: CTRL-] TO QUIT ********

************ REMOTE CONSOLE EXITED *****************
(104, ''Connection reset by peer'')
Error: Error connecting to xend, is xend running?

xend is running. in both cases xend.log shows 
--SNIP--

If someone could point out where im going wrong it would be very much
appreciated. Is there any way to get a more detailed trace of what xen is
doing?

Re: [Xen-devel] Custom Guest OS not booting

I didn''t check which hcall you''re making, but i''m
betting its the one
to do consoleio. By default, only dom0 is allowed to do such. You''re  
options are either to do the work to get domU io working (non- 
trivial), or hack xen to allow anybody to write to consoleio. Look in  
xen/drivers/char/console.c line 349:

     /* Only domain 0 may access the emergency console. */
     if ( current->domain->domain_id != 0 )
         return -EPERM;

Good luck

You''re
yup, it''s console io.> options are either to do the work to get domU io working (non-

where
should the console io go to? the linux console? xm dmesg? 
If I was to try and get domu io working where should i start? im guessing
it''s
a matter of writing a tty driver. does xen have a backend driver for this type
of thing?

Regards 
Ivan

I thought you could build Xen with debug=y to make the console hypercall work 
for other doms...

Could be wrong now but worth a try.

Yes they can if ''verbose=y'' is specified. There should be no
problem
since verbosity is enabled by default right now.
