Re: [win-pv-devel] v9.0.0 released
Den 11.12.2019 09:29, skrev Durrant, Paul:
Can someone post a log of the qemu output (with xen_platform_log in the events
file) so we can see what the PV drivers are doing?
By that you mean contents of '/root/events' with 'device_model_args=[
"-trace", "events=/root/events" ]' in the vm configuration?
I generally do most of my testing against the latest Xen (i.e. 4.13). 4.8
should be fine though; the main differences from a Windoows PoV would be in the
viridian enlightenment code, but that's orthogonal to the PV driver interfaces.
I'm running 4.13
I've trimmed out the cruft from the config I normally used and attached it. (I
also normally boot Xen with a grant frame limit of 128, i.e. 4x the default).

Håkon, this is what prompted me to ask everyone what cfg is being used
with these new drivers in case it's a conflict caused by a flag/option I'm
using.
Paul, since these work for you, can you please share what you're using to
ensure we're not using something in conflict?
On another note, is there a specific xen version we should be using?
# rpm -qa | grep xen
xen-libs-4.8.5.75.g4c666a7e15-1.el7.x86_64
xen-ovmf-20160905-1.gitbc54e50e0.el7.x86_64

Same here. Restored disk image from backup and tried again, and got
same
second time. Left it for a day, still spinning. After destroying it,
at
some point I got "Can not access boot device" in the middle of that
pale blue screen. Trying to roll back using recovery point fails.
(That
is the extent of the error message, just restore failed) . It /does/
show me the possible points I can revert to though, so it looks like
it
is working until it doesen't. For the record I also uninstalled old
drivers first. First time around I also removed the Spice-thingy,
leaving only Qemu. Second time around I left both the Qemu and Spice
stuff in.
Going back to that image is rather painful, as the disk image takes
forever to copy to a new partition, and the backup I have is several
windows-updates old, and insist on running a backup first thing when
it
gets moving :-/ .
Did a chkdsk from the installation-iso (which boots nicely with the
same
config, except for "boot='dc'"). Found some minor nits w\chkdsk. Am
now
trying to boot into safemode minimal. Not even a spinner showing,
"Times" column in the "xl list" display increases by about 0.4 every
second, so it is doing /something/ ...
