Please Note: Per best-practices by upstream this package follows the git stable branch. Minor releases do not require a version bump and the PKGBUILD will provide the appropriate version number.

stubdom is still broken.

Did anyone see this error message with latest kernel 22 feature-rx-notify is mandatory ?

I will look at that patch when I transition this over to become xen-4.4 (as "xen" will be moving over to match the 4.5 release) Note: I am currently away from my systems so the package update will be delayed until I get back this weekend and can run everything through final tests.

@tritron Are you sure than that patch is needed at all? As far that I know the RAM limit when using VGA Passthrough was fixed sometime during Xen 4.3, as with the xen-4.3 AUR package, I was able to get it working with > 4 GB RAM on a WXP x64 DomU. See this: http://i.imgur.com/a37aoZF.png With Xen 4.4, I had regressions with PCI Passthrough (Sound Card makes nasty noises everytime that it reproduces a sound), and VGA Passthrough was a total no go, this was regardless if I was using 2 GB of RAM or more. Did you successfully managed to get VGA Passthrough working with less than 3.5 GB without the patch and more with it? I would be surprised cause this means yet another regression on Xen 4.4 vs 4.3, through if that patch fixes it we're already covered.

Can this patch be added ? http://xenbits.xen.org/gitweb/?p=xen.git;a=patch;h=d06886694328a31369addc1f614cf326728d65a6 It solves memory limit of 3.5gb when assigning vga card. Without this patch I get not enough resources error 12

Firstly, thanks for all the work keeping the xen package up to date. I just got it set up and working and it's working great! I thought I'd share this, in case anyone else is interested in booting a grub2 (which is what arch ships with) on a guest VM: https://blog.xenproject.org/2015/01/07/using-grub-2-as-a-bootloader-for-xen-pv-guests/ I haven't done it yet, but it seems .... reasonably straight forward.

Hi Kantras, I found another way to customize the Xen bootloader. You need to edit the /etc/xen/grub.conf file, as described in the Grub section here. https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/xen No need to research any further.

ArthurBorsboom commented on 2014-12-31 10:10 (UTC)

That sounds good to me. Thanks!

Hi ArthurBorsboom, The short version is that it never has supported using those options in /etc/default/grub, even before I took maintainership of it; the rewrite I did was keeping with existing functionality, just extending it to also support the lts kernels. I'm actually working on the PKGBUILD for 4.5 now, so I'll add a task to myself to look into 09_xen vs 20_linux_xen (which is the script which comes packaged with grub that uses that variable) and decide which way is best to go to ensure existing configurations aren't broken by any changes I make either.

Hi Kantras, While trying to set a fixed amount of memory for Dom0, I noticed that the 09_xen file of grub, does not pick up the "GRUB_CMDLINE_XEN_DEFAULT" variable in /etc/default/grub, as I believe it should be. See also: http://wiki.xen.org/wiki/Xen_Project_Best_Practices When I manually modify the "XEN_HYPERVISOR_CMDLINE" variable in 09_xen, it does work. However when 09_xen gets updated, this change will be lost. Do you know why the GRUB_CMDLINE_XEN_DEFAULT is not being used by 09_xen?

kantras commented on 2014-12-16 07:21 (UTC)

With xen 4.5 arriving soon, I'm planning to do the same as I did with the 4.3->4.4 transition; the current xen package will be renamed to 'xen-4.4' and 'xen' will be for the 4.5 release. My goal is to keep the last last three revisions in sync with the upstream releases (so 4.3, 4.4 and 4.5).
