I am in need of a method to pass USB devices that require higher performance than the current qemu usb passthru method. I have read about using pvusb, but I am unable to find any method to use pvusb or kernel support for that matter. What can I do short of waiting for Xen 4.2 to be released with a new version of qemu? _______________________________________________ Xen-devel mailing list Xen-devel@lists.xensource.com http://lists.xensource.com/xen-devel

I suppose that is possible. I am also having another issue after compiling the xen-4.1.1 source code. I sent the issue to the xen-users mailing list, but I think this is probably a more suitable place for the issue I just downloaded Xen-4.1.1 from xen.org, compiled it, and installed it. I then compiled kernel 3.0.0 and added the hypervisor and dom0 kernel in a grub 2 entry. After booting, I executed "xl list," to confirm the hypervisor was running. I was greeted with this message: libxl: error: libxl.c:56:libxl_ctx_init Is xenstore daemon running? failed to stat /var/run/xenstored.pid: No such file or directory cannot init xl context I poked around and found there is a folder within /var/run called "xenstored" and I found there was no service called xenstored in /etc/init.d. There are the services I found in init.d: xencommons xend xendomains xen-watchdog After extracting the xen source here are the commands I used to compile: make xen make tools make stubdom make install-xen make install-tools make install-stubdom On Wed, 2011-08-03 at 22:55 -0400, Konrad Rzeszutek Wilk wrote:> On Wed, Aug 03, 2011 at 07:47:05PM -0700, Larry Ing wrote: > > I am in need of a method to pass USB devices that require higher > > performance than the current qemu usb passthru method.
