Honestly, i don't see much sense in forward porting Xen 3.3 , because it doesn't support ( http://wiki.xensource.com/xenwiki/XenParavirtOps) :-
1. The ability for the Xen hypervisor to load and boot bzImage pv_ops dom0 kernel 2. The ability for the Xen tools to use the sysfs memory ballooning support provided by pv_ops dom0 kernel Coming soon F11 (and even F10 in meantime) has Xen 3.3.1 with mentioned feature back ported from Xen Unstable (3.4). View for instance:- http://lxer.com/module/newswire/view/120005/index.html. My major concern in details follows bellow has been posted on xen-devel mailing list :- Re: [Xen-devel] Changeset 19594 for Xen 3.4 build on Ubuntu Server 9.04 From:"Boris Derzhavets" <[email protected]> Friday, May 15, 2009 12:38 PM Add sender to Contacts To:"Ian Jackson" < ... @eu.citrix.com> Cc:"[email protected]" <[email protected]>, "Keir Fraser" < .... @eu.citrix.com> Per /usr/lib/python2.6/site.py:- For Debian and derivatives, this sys.path is augmented with directories for packages distributed within the distribution. Local addons go into /usr/local/lib/python<version>/dist-packages, Debian addons install into /usr/{lib,share}/python<version>/dist-packages. /usr/lib/python<version>/site-packages is not used. It is different from /usr/lib/python2.5/site.py With Config.mk:- PYTHON = python PYTHON_PREFIX_ARG = Packages gets installed into /usr/local/lib/python2.6/dist-packages:- r...@serverjaunty:/usr/local/lib/python2.6/dist-packages# ls -ld xen drwxr-sr-x 9 root staff 4096 2009-05-15 10:35 xen Xend starts fine, pygrub doesn't fail. Xen host seems to be OK. But, "xm create -c DomU.cfg" doesn't work any more,even with xenified kernel. DomU gets paused at startup and no matter of been unpaused or no, finally crashes with message:- "Hotplug scripts not working" I believe Xen 3.4 has problem been installed on Ubuntu 9.04 Server (64-bit) with python 2.6 installed with default settings. Same situation will happen on any Debian derivative with Python 2.6. If i am wrong about that, please advise.
