Re: [Xen-users] Is there any way to make 2.6.31.4 work with XEN?

Hi Stephen,

Thanks for the reply. I managed to run XEN 3.4.1 on 2.6.31.4 kernel. I posted the procedure in my other post as well.

The current version of Xen being developed on is with the 2.6.31.4 kernel. If you go to xen-devel you will see emails on the testing going on associated with the latest kernel. You might want to try this email there as the xen-users list does not involve people working with the latest build. Thanks.

Subject: [Xen-users] Is there any way to make 2.6.31.4 work with XEN?

 

Hi,
[Can you please recommend me some stable linux release and xen version to work.]

I am facing this error while kernel compilation. I am using 2.6.31.4 from Jeremys git tree. I am having amd64 hardware.

drivers/built-in.o: In function `processor_cntl_xen_prepare':
(.text+0x5df52): undefined reference to `acpi_processor_get_

performance_info'
drivers/built-in.o: In function `processor_cntl_xen_prepare':
(.text+0x5df71): undefined reference to `acpi_processor_get_psd'
make[1]: *** [.tmp_vmlinux1] Error 1
make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/ah/xennew/kernel/linux-2.6-xen'
make: *** [debian/stamp/build/kernel] Error 2


I am building kernel latest 2.6.31.4 kernel FOR XEN from jeremy's git tree. I am on amd64 architecture.

If I change the following parameter to 'y' then kernel compiles successfully.
CONFIG_ACPI_PROCESSOR=m

The following parameter is set as 'y' in my config

CONFIG_ACPI_PROCESSOR_XEN=y

But I do not know whether this is the correct way of handling this error or not. Because if I compile and install this kernel and then compile and instal xen 3.4.1 over it then xen hangs on the reboot.

Any help will be more than welcome.
