taking effect for the older code. Everything works fine if I just clone from
Xenbits, .\configure, etc, without checking out RELEASE-4.6.1.

John,

you can go here

http://xenbits.xen.org/gitweb/?p=qemu-xen-traditional.git;a=summary

and see the GNUTLS patch that is imported into the 4.7.0-rc4 build. Go ahead and export that patch

and use it in your 4.6.1 build. When you build from xen Git it is using as many as 5 other supporting git

repos, so keeping track of all the imported patches is daunting.

If you want to build with pvgrub & stubdom support there are other issues. My approach is here:

SOLVED: This reply provides thread completeness for future reference.

Mark, Xen Developers,

Mark’s idea works:

1. Clone Xen from Xenbits; this should succeed.

2. Checkout RELEASE-4.6.1.; this should succeed.

3. Run './configure'; this should succeed.

4. Run 'make world'; this should fail when building QEMU.

5. Apply the patch; this should succeed.

6. Run 'make tools'; this should succeed.

7. Install Xen and tools.

Thanks,

John
