We've moved to the newly-stable 4.20.0 branch. There are also other changes:

stubdom is fixed by disabling the vtmp and vtpmmgr components. This gets rid of a few source files and our remaining patches.
Debug files are only removed if the debug option is not set in makepkg.cfg (or the PKGBUILD itself)
pygrub has been removed
optdepends are adjusted for the upcoming xen-grub split package for the various Xen flavored builds.

If you're still using pygrub note that it is deprecated. The solution is to build PV grub instead, which used to be in AUR but is now missing. I am asking a couple questions on the mailing list, and I intend to put my current build of xen-grub (which supersedes xen-pvhgrub) on AUR as soon as possible. If you need to build it before that occurs, you can find it in my PKGBUILD repo.

EDIT: 4.20.0-2 adds support for the xen-edk2 package, which has a fixed UEFI for xen

@jsteel: I think it's a mistake in the PKGBUILD. It should be: --with-system-seabios=/usr/share/qemu/bios-256k.bin (so with the path to SeaBIOS specified) There should be a path as well for OVMF, but I just realize the package change recently so I don't know if it's going to work with Xen.

jsteel commented on 2017-04-03 12:35 (UTC)

After updating from 4.8.0-4 to 4.8.0-5 I installed seabios but I get an error when booting a domU: libxl: error: libxl_dom.c:892:libxl__load_hvm_firmware_module: failed to read BIOS file: No such file or directory I've gone back to 4.8.0-4 for now. Any idea what else is needed apart from installing seabios for non-UEFI systems now? Thanks.

Hitting repeated issues building this when downloading ovmf: -> Cloning ovmf git repo...

And yes I did remove all the ovmf entries! Is anyone else getting this?

Bumped to 4.8.0-5. This version adds XSA-211, splits out SeaBIOS and OVMF and disables Werror (hopefully).

badboy commented on 2017-03-20 09:41 (UTC)

I'd be fine with that.

<deleted-account> commented on 2017-03-19 19:32 (UTC)

So what do you guys think about using the system's OVMF and SeaBios? Apart from faster build times because we don't need to build them ourselfs, we also prevent errors like the one of @maldo. Once this is decided, I will push out a new PKGBUILD with the --disable-werror patch and possibly the new SeaBIOS/OVMF.

@badboy @JohnTh: you can use the following patch for the makedev compile error: --- a/tools/blktap2/control/tap-ctl-allocate.c 2016-04-25 22:33:15.444681888 -0 700 +++ b/tools/blktap2/control/tap-ctl-allocate.c 2016-04-25 22:30:33.288046037 -0 700 @@ -36,6 +36,7 @@ #include <sys/stat.h> #include <sys/types.h> #include <sys/ioctl.h> +#include <sys/sysmacros.h> #include <linux/major.h> #include "tap-ctl.h" --- a/tools/libxl/libxl_osdeps.h 2016-04-25 22:55:04.326527630 -0700 +++ b/tools/libxl/libxl_osdeps.h 2016-04-25 22:53:36.315440845 -0700 @@ -43,6 +43,7 @@ #define SYSFS_PCIBACK_DRIVER "/sys/bus/pci/drivers/pciback" #define NETBACK_NIC_NAME "vif%u.%d" #include <pty.h> +#include <sys/sysmacros.h> #include <uuid/uuid.h> #elif defined(__sun__) #include <stropts.h>

You could avoid this kind of warning, now and later, with two modifications in PKGBUILD. When calling ./configure, add "--disable-werror" to --with-extra-qemuu-configure-args. And add APPEND_CFLAGS=-Wno-error to make. So build() would look like this: ./configure \ PYTHON=/usr/bin/python2 \ --prefix=/usr \ --sbindir=/usr/bin \ --with-sysconfig-leaf-dir=conf.d \ --with-initddir=/etc/init.d \ --enable-systemd \ --enable-ovmf \ "${_config_stubdom:---disable-stubdom}" \ --with-extra-qemuu-configure-args="--disable-bluez --disable-gtk --enable-spice --enable-usb-redir --disable-werror" make LANG=C PYTHON=python2 APPEND_CFLAGS=-Wno-error dist

@badboy: Fixed the architecture problem, split packages are weird. @badboy @JohnTh: I can not reproduce the problem here. I'm running a fully updated Arch. Do you have any changed values in /etc/makepkg.conf?
