No pcifront in F10?
by Jim Lutz 25 Oct '10

25 Oct '10

I have a virtual machine landscape consisting of a CentOS 5.3 Dom0 with Xen 3.1.2, some PV CentOS DomU's with PCI passthrough (same versions), and I'm trying to implement a F10 DomU with PCI passthrough. I set everything up for the passthrough, and the F10 guest can't see any of the devices with lspci. If I boot a CentOS PV machine with the same PCI passthrough configuration, the devices show up with lspci. I've seen some posts in various places about this issue, but no solutions. How do I implement this?

Dom0 to rawhide?
by W. Michael Petullo 23 Aug '10

23 Aug '10

I have been using Michael Young's Xen Dom0 kernels. With kernel 2.6.34 in Rawhide, what is keeping Xen 4.0 and a DomU kernel from being pushed to Rawhide? My understanding was that kernel 2.6.33 would provide the pvops features required to make a Dom0 kernel palatable to Fedora. Did this feature not make this release? http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Features/XenPvopsDom0 has not been updated in a while, but I suspect that a Xen Dom0 kernel will not be in Fedora 13. -- Mike :wq

If anyone wants to test xen 3.4.3, I have put up a source RPM at http://myoung.fedorapeople.org/dom0/src/xen-3.4.3-0.91.fc13.src.rpm Michael Young

dom0 kernel
by M A Young 22 Jun '10

22 Jun '10

Another dom0 kernel is available at http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=2071068 or from the repository http://fedorapeople.org/~myoung/dom0/ . This kernel requires xen 3.4.3 or xen 4.0.0 and a source rpm for xen-4.0.0-rc7 is at http://fedorapeople.org/~myoung/dom0/src/xen-4.0.0-0.5.rc7.fc12.src.rpm This kernel is the first that boots for me on i686 for a long time. It also switches from initrd to initramfs boot partitions which should make it easier to use on Fedora 13. Michael Young

I think I will add the relevant patch to the xen 3.4.3 F-12 and F-13 packages, as I would like to keep them basically functional with the xen/stable-2.6.32.x kernels. I will do something with the rawhide package as well, though I haven't yet decided whether just to add the patch or go for the latest xen 4 rc. Michael Young

It looks like you might have the hotplug package installed (current Fedora doesn't have this package) and xen is trying to set things up accordingly. If you didn't get any RPMs I did a test build of xen-4.0.0-0.7.fc12 at http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=2225738 for rawhide that you might be able to use. Michael Young
