Hi Jackson,
Our team spares some effort in regular testing against xen-unstable tree.
I know you are doing some testing against xen.
Which Dom0 are you using in your oss test, Konrad''s xen.git or upstream
linux.git ?
And which Dom0 do you recommend in my regular testing?
(Not sure you are the right person for this question? :-) )
Best Regards,
Yongjie (Jay)
Sorry, ping...
Any suggestions? Also CC Ian Campbell for suggestion.
Best Regards,
Yongjie (Jay)

Stable is always a branch of the most recent release from Linus, it seems to be 3.3.7 right now but there will no doubt be a 3.4.1 quite soon. Sticking with the previous version until 3.4.1 or 3.4.2 might be wise. I'm assuming here that the primary aim is to test Xen and not necessarily to test dom0 directly. If one wants to explicitly test dom0 then running Linus' tree (on a known good Xen baseline) seems like the right answer.> Linux 3.4.x is the first kernel with Xen ACPI cpufreq / power management patches included, > so it makes sense to use 3.4+ ?Yongjie didn't express any interest in a particular feature, so my advice was more general.

My draft plan is to use 3.4.1 when available, then will keep it constant until next stable kernel (e.g. 3.4.2) is released. I'll also discuss with our internal persons and make final decision.> Ian. >And, thanks for your suggestion. -- Yongjie> > > > > > > -- Pasi > > > > > > > > > > > > Best Regards, > > > > Yongjie (Jay) > > > > > > > > > -----Original Message----- > > > > > From: xen-devel-bounces@lists.xen.org > > > > > [mailto:xen-devel-bounces@lists.xen.org] On Behalf Of Ren, Yongjie > > > > > Sent: Monday, May 28, 2012 4:05 PM > > > > > To: ian.jackson@eu.citrix.com > > > > > Cc: xen-devel@lists.xen.org > > > > > Subject: [Xen-devel] which Dom0 should I use in my regular testing? > > > > > > > > > > Hi Jackson, > > > > > Our team spares some effort in regular testing against > xen-unstable tree. > > > > > I know you are doing some testing against xen. > > > > > Which Dom0 are you using in your oss test, Konrad's xen.git or > upstream > > > > > linux.git ? > > > > > And which Dom0 do you recommend in my regular testing? > > > > > (Not sure you are the right person for this question? :-) ) > > > > > > > > > > Best Regards, > > > > > Yongjie (Jay) > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > _______________________________________________ > > > > > Xen-devel mailing list > > > > > Xen-devel@lists.xen.org > > > > > http://lists.xen.org/xen-devel > > > > > > > > > > > > _______________________________________________ > > > Xen-devel mailing list > > > Xen-devel@lists.xen.org > > > http://lists.xen.org/xen-devel >_______________________________________________ Xen-devel mailing list Xen-devel@lists.xen.org http://lists.xen.org/xen-devel
