RE: [Xen-ia64-devel] [PATCH]E100 network card emulator
Hi, Xing
The E100 network card emulator can't keep functioning in guest HVM with the
following run environment.
Xen:
1. xen unstable tree, Cset = 16470 (latest)
2. open guest firmware, Cset=35:ebf7052731ec (latest)
Guest HVM Configuration:
1. memory=1024
2. vcpus=2
3. acpi=1
4. apic=1
5. sdl=1
6. vif=['bridge=xenbr0, type=ioemu, model=e100']
7. serial=pty
8. guest_os_type=linux
Both RHEL5GA and RHEL4u3 as guest HVM OS are used in my experiments. E100
network card can be successfully recognized and setup during system booting.
Although it indeed works as expected when use ping, ssh and scp command, the
happy work time can't last more than 5 minutes. It always failed to require IP
address again by using "ifup eth0" or "service network restart".
Are there key points missed to make the E100 network care emulator functions in
guest HVM?
Your help will be appreciated very much!
Amy

Hi Keir:
I did a patch that enabled E100 network card in device model. It makes
win2k3/IA64 have network access without PV driver.
Of course, we've past 3.2 feature freeze. But this patch is self
contained and strong fits current device model framework.
We really appreciate you if you consider get it into upstream
for 3.2. It's important to IA64. Thanks
