AW: [Xen-users] OpenSUSE/SLES xen kernel sources

[Carsten Schiers <carsten@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Doing the same thing right now. Rebased patches against www.kernel.org kernel 
sources
can be found here:

 http://code.google.com/p/gentoo-xen-kernel/downloads/list

The principle with older kernel can be found here:

I managed with 2.6.32.13. I had to switch off microcode handling. And I crashed 
the
system when shutting a DomU down with that kernel, that got a sky2 NIC by PCI 
passthrough.
Eventually, MSI doesn't work, as with e.g. debian 2.6.26 (pci=nomsi necessary), 
but I will
not try that out again remotely. My son at home would kill me ;o).

BR,
Carsten.

P.S.: Pasi, I think we could possibly add something on building xenified, 
forward
patched kernels in the Wiki...it was difficult to find a good way to do it. 
Eventually,
a hint to Boris How To will do...

Betreff: [Xen-users] OpenSUSE/SLES xen kernel sources

Hi,


just want to try and testbench recent proven Xen kernel based on Xenlinux 
(forwardport patches) on my Debian Lenny Dom0 (so far I benched 2.6.18.8, pvops 
stable 2.6.31.13, "previous" pvops stable 2.6.32.11, "current" pvops stable 
2.6.32.13 and debian xenified 2.6.26). 

According to http://wiki.xensource.com/xenwiki/XenDom0Kernels there is bunch of 
various xen patches and kernel versions from OpenSUSE/SLES - and I'm lost (I've 
never used OpenSUSE/SLES and I'm not familiar with them at all yet :) ) - I 
just need one proven xen kernel source (not binary) so I can make my own config 
and compile it (eventually make .deb packages from it). RPM source file 
shouldn't be problem - I can extract them with rpm2cpio  eventually. 

So far all I downloaded was binary or I was not able to compile it due some 
errors (for example this one 
ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/projects/kernel/kotd/SLE11-SP1/x86_64/kernel-source-2.6.32.13-0.0.0.16.fdabae0.x86_64.rpm)
 - I will be glad if anyone can show me the right direction. :)

Thanks.

Regards

Matej
