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

* This will attempt to create '/run/xen' every time Xen is started. * I am not sure what you mean by 'which is necessary for pv domains to run with the XL stack', pv domains run fine under xl. * '/usr/bin/xenstore-write "/local/domain/0/name" "Domain-0"' belongs better in xenstored.service, something like ExecStart=/usr/sbin/xenstored --pid-file /var/run/xenstored.pid $XENSTORED_ARGS; /usr/bin/xenstore-write "/local/domain/0/name" "Domain-0" or preferably use && instead of semicolon if that is allowed. * I agree with you about the archinit.patch, not sure it's going to break anything but certainly, the first half no longer affects anything and the second half deals with xendomains and probably no longer affects anything (I haven't had a look at things for a week). Either way, I didn't need it to build the official tarball and, if memory serves, I was able to build the Arch package without it too.

Another version of the service file, this time it creates /run/xen, which is necessary for pv domains to run with the XL stack. This was the kind of thing originally handled by xend. It's a simple change, but I've renamed it xen-dom0-env.service: -------- [Unit] Description=Name the Xen Domain0 for use with XL Requires=xenstored.service ConditionPathExists=/proc/xen [Service] Type=oneshot ExecStart=/usr/bin/mkdir /run/xen ; /usr/bin/xenstore-write "/local/domain/0/name" "Domain-0" [Install] WantedBy=multi-user.target

xendomains.service will break on pure systemd dom0s because of archinit.patch. The patch's original purpose was to make the xen rc files work with Arch's sysvinit better, so it should be fairly painless to remove it. Also, I think the xen-dom0-name.service file should have it's type set to oneshot rather than simple.

Here's a service file to rename the dom0. xen-dom0-name.service ---- [Unit] Description=Name the Xen Domain0 for use with XL Requires=xenstored.service ConditionPathExists=/proc/xen [Service] Type=simple ExecStart=/usr/bin/xenstore-write "/local/domain/0/name" "Domain-0" [Install] WantedBy=multi-user.target

Typo, .service files won't be copied. for f in ${source[@]}; do [[ $f =~ .mount || $f =~ .fice ]] && install -Dm644 $f "$pkgdir"/usr/lib/systemd/system/$f

Remove the instruction of addin xenfs to fstab from xen.install. This is not needed because proc-xen.mount does that and it disables the possibility to boot the system without hypervisior.

It seems that sendomains script does not work with system. my xendomains.services status is always failed and my instances are always stopped. The script does not stop instances at all on shutdown. I had found that open suse xendomains script works fine along with copy of rc.status in /etc/ instances are started at boot time and shutdown and saved at shutdown.
