Hi,
I just updated the xen packages to 3.1.0, and renamed them
from *30 to *3
as it's not "Xen 3.0" anymore but just "Xen
3" (they dropped a digit, for
the same reason NetBSD did some years ago 

You need a recent current or netbsd-4 kernel to run 3.1.0, a
bug in privcmd.c
prevented guests from starting.

With this version, I can boot windows 2003 in a hvm guest
from a ntfs
filesystem (the guest would crash with 3.0.4 because of a
bug in 16bit
instructions emulation), and I see better network
performances.

Great news, many thanks for your work!

btw, what's on your actual roadmap about Xen?


Best regards, Mark

My next big item is Xen on amd64. But I've not really
started looking at it
yet.

end_request: I/O error, dev sda1, sector 1236704

Hi,

I'm having a filesystem issue in Linux DomUs, on several
NetBSD/Dom0 
boxes (so it's not related to underlying hardware failures).
 It used to 
happen with 3.0.1-4, and it still happens with 3.1,
preventing me from 
using Linux domUs on NetBSD dom0.

very much lines like this, a bit while booting, and very
much while 
using the system (e.g. doing du -sh),
end_request: I/O error, dev sda1, sector 1236704

This is what happens in the logs,

Are you sure you're not using sparse files for this domU ?

yes I'm using a file, but it's not sparse.  In the given
example, it's a 
hard 1GB filesystem image, used by vnconfig.

node2# ls -lhF
total 1.1G
-rw-r--r--  1 root  wheel  296B Jun 18 16:27 fedora.conf
-rw-r--r--  1 root  wheel  1.0G Mar 26  2006 fedora.fc6.img
-rw-r--r--  1 root  wheel  202B Mar 13 01:50
fedora.fc6.xen2.cfg
-rw-r--r--  1 root  wheel  206B Mar 14 02:34
fedora.fc6.xen3.cfg
-rw-r--r--  1 root  wheel   64M Mar 15 02:53 fedora.swap
-rw-r--r--  1 root  wheel   70M Jun 18 15:30 modules.ext2
-rw-r--r--  1 root  wheel  1.4M Jun 18 15:30 vmlinuz
node2#

This one came from jailtime.org, but I did some SLES9sp3 on
my own and 
had the same problem (also in a fixed size ext3 file, using

e2fsprogs/mkfs.ext3 -F).

Thanks

And what does du -h report on these files ?
ls -l won't tell if a file is sparce or not.

ok the jailtime.org image is sparse.  for my information,
how to create 
sparse images anyway (possibly without xen-create-image) ?

I just did a fresh gentoo and the filesystem behaves nicely
(simple dd 
if=/dev/zero of=gentoo.ext3 bs=1024k count=2000).  So I'll
recheck the 
SLES9sp3 issue at work.

Many thanks

something else, when I used to reboot a linux domU, the
guest was kept 
alive, rebooting itself.  Now (since 3.1?) I need to xm
create it again. 
  any hint/idea ?
