How to enable remus support for jeremy''s xen.git xen/stable-2.6.32.x
Hello guys, First of all I need remus support for a Debian 6 system (kernel 2.6.32-5 : Xen-4.1.1). Debian-customized kernels don''t actually support remus. There''s a patch here: http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=608988 that suggests adding the support for upcomming releases of the kernel, yet only in the wishlist. I have downloaded jeremy''s xen.git kernel:# git clone git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jeremy/xen.git linux Done the checkouts for 2.6.32-5 and everything seems to be perfectly fine. Remus does need some kernel configuration options to be enabled in order to work later on, reference here: http://wiki.xen.org/xenwiki/Remus. I can actually enable all of the options except one: CONFIG_NET_SCH_PLUG=m. There seems to be no such option, which is also missing in the Debian kernel and displays the folowing error: # remus <command stuff> Traceback (most recent call last): ....... raise BufferedNICException(''could not load sch_plug_module'') xen.remus.device.BufferedNICException: could not load sch_plug module # - Thus my question is: what options do I need to enable first to have NET_SCH_PLUG visible? Because that kernel has indeed remus support as far as I know. Thanks a lot!
