The Plan 9 Xen PAE kernels runs fine on my NetBSD 64 bit Xen
server. My
Xen version is 3.3.x but 3.2.1 should works too. I could post my
Xen config file here if you like?

I knew about that patch but I wanted to change the least possible to
the original code.
I think cinap is the one who did the pie menus btw.

20h did the first pie menu patch that is available on sources as a

Just curious if anyone has any experience running Plan 9 under Xen with a
64-bit hypervisor? It's my understanding that the PAE kernel should work,
but upon creation of the DomU, the machine quickly panics.
I've updated /n/sources/xen/xen3 source and sample kernels with a small
mmu correction
I feel compelled to add that hardware
uncorrectable bitflips are still reported as erasures, whereas venti
collisions are reported as success and only caught if somebody's doing
checksumming at larger granularity.
Uncorrectable bitflips can also be unreported.

Hi,
If I'm writing a library and I'd like to use procdata, is there any
way to safely do so, considering that applications using the library
might be using procdata as well? Perhaps it should take a key, like
pthread_getspecific/_setspecific?
Thanks,

tracking down the bug). Maybe this will help for your configuration too.

since procdata(2) it is unused,
cd /sys/src
could you explain this a little further. pae would normally
not be useful with 2gb of ram and is often of dubious utility
on a 4gb machine. what's different about xen?
PAE is of no utility at all as far as I can see, but sometimes
we have to run xen guests on somebody else's hypervisor

Wow, thanks for the fast responses!
For what it's worth, the following is my Xen config:
kernel = /home/kvanals/plan9/9xeninst-pae.gz
memory = 32
vcpus = '1'
name = plan9.kvanals.org
vif = [ 'mac=00:16:3E:9F:FF:01' ]
disk = [ 'file:/home/kvanals/plan9/plan9.img,sda,w',
wouldn't it suffice to set temporary permissions of 777 and fixup
when leavinging that directory?
depth first, so it could be a while in between. Not really a massive
problem but still an issue
btw. it is a great way to backup. 1% of CPU while running, which is
doubly fortunate

Okay, what's the trick to installing the cd on plan 9. I'm using the following
version of parallels:
build 5.0.9310.
Or I should say I'm not using it.
Here's a screen shot.

- walkfs can cache/reuse results from previous runs
that is a bad idea. caching is just going to cause trouble.
- no more hassle with space or other special characters in filenames
what? if the underlying fs doesn't want to do spaces, you
can't force it.
