We have test latest xen on VT platforms with Intel 915/E8500 chipset and Here is
the test summary:
Now we can support BIG MEMORY ( <3840M ) in IA-32e VMX guest.
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 >3840M memory in IA-32e platform.
- vcpu-pin on VMX guest will hang service OS.
For details:
