XENHVM on -curent useless

2013-07-10 Thread Sean Bruno
Just got a rootbsd.net instance and the 9.1r XENHVM that they provided
me works great.

Attempted to boot -current on their systems and the XENHVM kernel
panic'd when it could find any hardware timers.  This is a pretty
serious regression that I'll bisect this weekend if nobody is looking at
it.

For the record I did *try* to compile the PVHVM tree in git, and it did
not build for me on 9.x because of some stupid unlreated yyparse error
that made me table flip and go back to 9.1r

 Could you post the boot log and the panic with a backtrace?


it builds and runs fine on 9/STABLE as of today for me under XEN XCP

Yeah, I'll do that in a bit. I'm doing a testcompile on my instance at
the moment, but the panic string was:

panic: No usable event timer found

I'm rebuilding world/kernel at the moment, so it'll be a couple of hours
before I can fire it up.

p.s. thanks for your work on PVHVM.  I look forward to testing it soon.
