Jeremy, Konrad, stumbling over this once in a while (this time looking for where Dominic''s "blktap: Fix reference to freed struct request" patch ended up, without any success so far) I wonder what pv-ops branch(es) is (are) supposed to be the one(s) (e.g.) distros ought to use - that is, fully featured (at least as far as non-experimental features go) *and* fully bug-fixed. The branches XenParavirtOps on the wiki points to don''t seem to be the ones (some of them seem not to have a blktap implementation at all), and gathering bits from various people''s private trees can''t be the ultimate solution...

There is a pretty good bug-fixed (thanks to Virtual Computer) and mostly featured (blkback, netback, blktap2) branch that I was thinking to setup and start upstreaming the pieces.> > > > The branches XenParavirtOps on the wiki points to don''t seem to be the > > ones (some of them seem not to have a blktap implementation at all), > > and gathering bits from various people''s private trees can''t be the > > ultimate solution... > > > > Afaik Jeremy''s xen.git xen/stable-2.6.32.x is supposed to be the > long-term stable branch, following upstream kernel.org long-term branch.<nods>> > -- Pasi > > > _______________________________________________ > Xen-devel mailing list > Xen-devel@lists.xensource.com > http://lists.xensource.com/xen-devel_______________________________________________ Xen-devel mailing list Xen-devel@lists.xensource.com http://lists.xensource.com/xen-devel
