[Xen-users] scsi host passthru not working after upgrade to 4.1.0
Hi, I''ve just upgraded to 4.1.0 from 4.0.1 and found that scsi host passthru is no longer working: xm create xen-win2008r2.cfg Using config file "./xen-win2008r2.cfg". Error: invalid literal for int() with base 10: ''host0'' The syntax in the guest is: vscsi=[''/dev/st0,host''] xen-scsibk is compiled as a module and loaded successfully. Kernel is 2.6.38 xenified using suse patches, not pv_ops.

Hi Andrew,> > Kernel is 2.6.38 xenified using suse patches, not pv_ops.Could you share this xenifier-patch with us? http://code.google.com/p/gentoo-xen-kernel only has sources up to 2.6.34 and a suse-xenified kernel is still a must when we want to use nvidia-binary- drivers.... Thanks in advance!

I''ve not had time to update for a while so I''ve gone straight from .34 to .38, but so far it seems very stable.

Any plans to update 2.6.32 patches?

Hi Andrew! big thanks! works great so far, only minor glitch is the fact that XENBLKTAP2 device has to be build as a module, when in-kernel it doesnt compile - but thats not a real problem at least for me. Now if only scsi and usb passthrough would work (and had pv drivers for win32... ) ;) Greetings!
