[Xen-devel] Troubles building the xen linux pv drivers
Hello list. I''m having trouble building the xen linux pv drivers from xen 3.4.1: [guillaume@oberkampf linux-2.6]$ make -C /lib/modules/2.6.31.5-desktop-1mnb/build/ M=$PWD modules make: Entering directory `/usr/src/linux-2.6.31.5-desktop-1mnb'' CC [M] /home/guillaume/xen-3.4.1/unmodified_drivers/linux-2.6/balloon/balloon.o In file included from /home/guillaume/xen-3.4.1/unmodified_drivers/linux-2.6/balloon/balloon.c:51: include/xen/interface/memory.h:32: error: expected specifier-qualifier-list before ''GUEST_HANDLE'' include/xen/interface/memory.h:53: warning: data definition has no type or storage class My current kernel is a 2.6.31.5, and I''m using a vanilla 2.6.30.2 + Andrew Lyon patches as xenified linux tree. -- BOFH excuse #199: the curls in your keyboard cord are losing electricity. _______________________________________________ Xen-devel mailing list Xen-devel@lists.xensource.com http://lists.xensource.com/xen-devel

Novell has some patches to make it work on 2.6.27. Also, afaik, someone at Redhat is working on porting the unmodified_drivers to pv_ops framework for upstream Linux kernel. -- Pasi _______________________________________________ Xen-devel mailing list Xen-devel@lists.xensource.com http://lists.xensource.com/xen-devel
