Hi, i noticed, that there is no Xen option in 2.6.23-rc2''s menuconfig on x86_64, yet. On i386, it''s there. Any knows, if support for x86_64 domU will be in 2.6.23 final or even rc3? Or has "paravirt_ops" been delayed for x86_64 ? Thanks, Sven _______________________________________________ Xen-devel mailing list Xen-devel@lists.xensource.com http://lists.xensource.com/xen-devel

Or has "paravirt_ops" been delayed for x86_64 ?There are a people actively working on the x86_64 port of paravirt_ops, and the associated lguest / xen ports on top of that. There''s no way it''ll be ready in time for 2.6.23 though. Perhaps something 2.6.24 but its pretty hard to predict LKML merge dates !

Seems like a first version of paravirt_ops has been developed. (Maybe Xen developers should take a look, if everything has been done the right way ...) _______________________________________________ Xen-devel mailing list Xen-devel@lists.xensource.com http://lists.xensource.com/xen-devel
