Hi, I''m doing my thesis on Linux Trace Toolkit (LTT) and interested to use LTT on virtual domains. I''m trying xen3.0-testing-src.tgz that comes with Linux 2.6.16.13. As the latest version of LTT comes with Linux-2.6.17, there is some difficulties to apply the Lttng patch on domains'' kernel. I was wondering if anyone was working on 2.6.17? Could I find xen-unstable coming with 2.6.17 soon or I had better to start a backport from Lttng to 2.6.16.13 ? Any comment is highly appreciated. Regards, Parissa. _______________________________________________ Xen-devel mailing list Xen-devel@lists.xensource.com http://lists.xensource.com/xen-devel
Hi Matt, Thanks for your quick answer. I need to work on the source code because I have to modify something and apply the patch of LTTng on the source code. Besides I ''m using both Ubuntu and Debian for my tests. Do you have any idea about the source code?

A quick search of kernel.org''s fedora mirror lead me no where in terms of sources for the xen 2.6.17 kernel. Have you tried looking through various distro mirror sites to see if any of them have it?

You can get the source RPMs from: http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/core/updates/5/SRPMS/kernel-2.6.17-1.2174_FC5.src.rpm The forthcoming Fedora Core 6 though is tracking the 2.6.18 tree. You can sync off the Mercurial repo for this tree here: http://hg.et.redhat.com/kernel/linux-2.6-xen-fedora As a general rule Fedora always tracks the very latest upstream kernels, so even once Xen itself re-sync to 2.6.18, Fedora will be moving forward again to the 2.6.19 tree & so on...

Hi Daniel, First, thanks for your help. It ''s a while that I''m trying to achieve 2.6.17 kernel tree for my virtual domains under Xen. Unfortunately yet I have no good result. I''m not so familiar with Fedora core and srpms. If I understand well this file http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/core/updates/5/SRPMS/kernel-2.6.17-1.2174_FC5.src.rpm could give me the kernel tree , then choosing xen-comaptible for Processor type and features -> Subarchitecture type , I might have the kernel image vmlinuz-2.6.17-Xen0 for my dom0 . But I ''m confused because normally in my directory linux-2.6.x-Xen0 , there were some symbolic link toward sparse directory. How should I manage them? Would you please lead me? And as a general question is it possible to use rpmbuild for other linux distributions? I applied #rpm -ivv , and I got linux2.6.17.tar.bz + some config and patch files in the /usr/src/rpm/SOURCE, then I tried #rpmbuild -bp under Ubuntu but there were some errors. At last I decided to apply the patches manually using spec file, but it seems I''m doing something wrong. It does not seem to be a good solution! I would really appreciate if anyone lead me to solve it. Regards, Parissa. On Thursday 14 September 2006 18:55, Daniel P.
