Make a wish, it may land as a present in time for packaging under the Xmas tree (or wherever you would like to see it, like rawhide mirrors :-) There is some interesting challenges though, one really need to synchronize the version of xen and the kernel-xen packages to avoid some not very funny debug sessions...

Yep fully understand, as I mentioned I'm just keen as mustard and want to hammer this baby before FC5 is released as I personally think that Xen is going to be a very important part of Linux where I use it most, in the enterprise.

I use a FC4 upgraded to rawhide approximately one month ago core setup, using 2.6.12-1.13_FC5hypervisor/2.6.12-1.13_FC5guest and xen-3.0-0.20051109.fc5.4 . Those are not the latest bleeding edge code but work for me. > Does it run on fedora x86_64 yet? I didn't tried myself, running on a i686 ATM. The xen package is available on x86_64, but I don't see the kernel-xen packages at http://fr.rpmfind.net/linux/fedora/core/development/x86_64/Fedora/RPMS/ but I hope we will be able to provide some soon. Xensource may have 64bits versions for the latests but you may hit the disparity between the slightly older xen version we package and the 3.0.0 near final ABI.

Among the design goal are: - being able to provide API and ABI guarantee - LGPL to be able to use it in a variety of contexts - pure C, minimizing dependancies - aiming at full documentation coverage A typical example of use case should be the applet displaying local Xen domains status in Fedora Core desktop. The current state is a small library to get informations and interract with existing domains, the design is not frozen, though the existing code should work as is, it is considered mostly as a way to bootstrap and seed the project, we are seeking interest from others. The library could be extended in various ways potentally supporting other virtualization mechanisms like QEmu, allowing to start new domains, etc. as long as the API is kept simple enough. The project is hosted at : http://libvir.org/ API http://libvir.org/html/libvir-libvir.html See the download page at http://libvir.org/downloads.html to get sources or CVS checkout, and https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/libvir-list for the mailing-list informations, which would be the best place to discuss this for those interested in this project, yours, Daniel -- Daniel Veillard | Red Hat http://redhat.com/ veillard at redhat.com | libxml GNOME XML XSLT toolkit http://xmlsoft.org/ http://veillard.com/ | Rpmfind RPM search engine http://rpmfind.net/ From bryan at thepaynes.cc Thu Dec 15 15:19:17 2005 From: bryan at thepaynes.cc (Bryan D.

It is not using libxc for a couple of reasons: - to decouple the API from Xen, with the hope it will help provide API stability with an intermediate abstraction - due to the licence: if the LGPL library requires to link with a GPL library well the resulting programs can only be used under the GPL licence. It is smaller than libxc in term of capabilities, the goal is not to try to match those exactly, it can be expanded if there is demand though but it's more about providing generic services. For example there is an API do dump running domain informations as an XML chunk that could be used as well for different kind of virtualization engine, and is more high level than what libxc provides.

It certainly do run fine on my laptop :-) The "fully cooked" applied to what we just pushed on fedora rawhide channel, this is the merge branch and with the Fedora set of config options also using rawhide kernel.

It's not TERRIBLY hard - although there's some quirks and catches. This works for me: Download some version of Xen from www.xensource.com (snapshot or 3.0.0 release). Unpack into xen- cd xen- make world cd *0 make ARCH=xen menuconfig cd .. make install cd dist ./install.sh If you use modules, you'll need to add a line saying "module (hd0,0)/boot/initrd-xxxx", and you need to create the initial ramdisk with "mkinitrd" in your linux-*0 directory. It's not hard, but to me it's easier to just build a kernel with all the drivers in one file - you loose a chunk of memory from this, of course. My kernel is a bit over 4MB uncompressed code and a good megabyte of data on top of that. Of course, your hard-disk layout may be different - adjust accordingly.

Message-ID: <20051231155903.3EEBE102FCC@openlogic.com.br> Hi big friend "Steven Anderson", "Try changing the MTU size to 1492 or 1460 on the interfaces except" Its suggestion for the problem of the FC4 functioned yes Sir. Now I am calmer and with this already I can place the server in production with bigger tranquillity. However I notice some other instability in xen of the FC4, therefore it wanted to exactly see xen of the FC5 to function, therefore if something to give wrong already would have the solution... Much thankful by the attention. Greetings, -- Leonardo Pinto listas#openlogic dot com br > Hi All, > > I really find me without exit.
