Title:
Improve xen packages and hvm domUs support
To
Thanks for your reply.
I not tried xen trusty package for now but only a fast watch on debian folder
of packages source.
seabios and upstream qemu is not specified on configure for what I saw
(./configure --enable-xend --prefix=/usr) and I think should be done to have
seabios and upstream qemu
Ah... I think that probably is also good put qemu-system-x86 as dipendency
since is default for disks on file also on pv domUs.
Is used also for vnc (and spice basic support if my patch will be accepted on
xen 4.5) on pv domUs.
Then using the 4.4 xl seem to me a few cases where it is not used,
Sorry for my bad english.
I not understand if you mean right.
About seabios, upstream qemu and ovmf from distro package I mean simply for
example:
for seabios ./configure ... --with-system-seabios=/usr/share/seabios/bios.bin
and remove tools-firmware-seabios-packaged patch.
About ovmf is better
I saw now the test I did with qemu from debian packages and I always use
/usr/bin/qemu-system-x86_64, since xen not use emulated cpu _64 or not
should not be different but probably is different for spice-server that
if I remember good have problem on 32 bit.

Recently on xen 4.5 staging git were added some tool's flags patches, I do not
have time to check the ubuntu patches but in the TODO for 4.5 maybe you should
also mark to check about them that perhaps other ubuntu patches can be removed.
Same thing also about a patch serie for tools prefix:
Thanks.
I confirm that crashes with spice have been solved since I installed qemu
2.0-rc2 from source.
About the Trusty's qemu package qemu I cannot try it now, I'll use it when I'll
migrate my work laptop to Trusty, perhaps one of the following weekends.
However qemu 2.0 defined by including
I can not find the updated repository of packages xen in ubuntu.

If not, if I have enough time I start to make some public and patches.
Thanks for any reply.

To boot pv domUs with newer grub pvgrub2 is needed, I'm using for a few months
a custom build from source, Trusty have it in official repository:
http://packages.ubuntu.com/trusty/grub-xen
Even if I not tested official debian/ubuntu now and from a quick look I do not
saw where is the file to
These are details for build custom pvgrub2 image I did:
aptitude install autogen libdevmapper-dev libfuse-dev unifont # some are
optionals but useful (other requirements if I am not mistaken are included in
the preparation of xen and qemu from source)
git clone git://git.sv.gnu.org/grub.git
Also xendomains init update tested (on debian sid) and working.
Can be used also on ubuntu with cherry-pick of:
