We have test latest xen on VT platform with Intel 915/E8500 chipset. Today I am
glad to announce a Greate news for Windows Guest.
With the xiaofeng''s patch (changset 8369), we can boot 2 windows xp
guests, and run HCT stress testing in one of them. Testing lasted for 6 hour and
no error reported.
Another good news is "Evtchn delay (may lost) issue" was resolved. Now
we can create VMX guest on a SMP machine which have 16 CPUS(4 sockets + dual
core + HT).
Here is the test summary:
IA-32:
Build&Boot SMP xen0 without problem
Can startup unmodified 2.4/2.6 linux on VMX domain
Can startup VMX & Xen with different configuration
Part of LTP runs well in VMX domain(2.6)
IA-32e:
Build&Boot SMP xen0 without problem
Can startup unmodified 2.6 linux on VMX domain
Can startup VMX & xenU with different configuration
Part of LTP runs well in VMX domain(2.6)
issues:
+ can not create IA-32e VMX which has >2G memory in IA-32e platform.
