[Xen-devel] VMX status Dec.21 changset 8404

["Shi, Kuiliang" <kuiliang.shi@xxxxxxxxx>]

 

 

 

We have test latest xen on VT platforms with Intel 915/E8500 chipset and Here is the test summary:

 Now we can support BIG MEMORY ( <3840M ) in IA-32e VMX guest.

 

IA-32:
    Build&Boot SMP xen0 without problem
    Can startup unmodified 2.4/2.6 linux on VMX domain
    Can startup VMX & Xen with different configuration
    Part of LTP runs well in VMX domain(2.6)
 
IA-32e:
    Build&Boot SMP xen0 without problem
    Can startup unmodified 2.6 linux on VMX domain
    Can startup VMX & xenU with different configuration
    Part of LTP runs well in VMX domain(2.6)

 

issues:

 

    - can not create IA-32e VMX which has >3840M memory in IA-32e platform.
    - vcpu-pin on VMX guest will hang service OS.
