As of now (2024-22-05) Xen with stubdom doesn't build because of a problem in the imported code. Been this way for about two weeks. Anyone else seeing this behavior?

Also, there is a lot of work happening on Xen in my development repo, thanks to @Serus. Check it out at: https://github.com/refutationalist/saur

Actually one of the compile tests I mentioned in the past does involve building with both ati and stubdom enabled ( and looking over the last build log, when I did this, it built without any issues ) Do you happen to have a log of the build error so I can look at what happened?

I believe stubdom needs to be disabled to build with the ati-passthrough patch >http://lists.xen.org/archives/html/xen-users/2013-03/msg00147.html >- due to an insufficiancy in the patch, stubdom would not build correctly, so you have to disable it Uncommented the ATI passthrough patch line and failed to build. Ripped out everything I could find in your PKGBUILD related to stubdom and it built successfully. I'm having some difficulty with VGA passthrough itself so far; beyond building I'm not sure what the extent of the patch under 4.4 nor the mangling of the PKGBUILD entails. Not familiar with this whole xen thing, so if I've made a grevious mistake please forgive me, thanks.

zir_blazer: I'll see if I can get some time to look at this tomorrow - right now I'm working on getting the xen-4.3 package up to date, but have started to read the thread you mentioned.

In order for Xen to be able to make DomU VMs that use UEFI instead of SeaBIOS, it needs to be builded with --enable-ovmf option, but it currently fails to build with that option. I request someone to look at this Thread and figure out if the changes I say can be added so it may successfully build with that option: https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=186591

New update is a simple release, with unnecessary patches removed. I've confirmed that the ATI patch still compiles however, as always, its untested beyond that.

Naruni: This pkgbuild only contains the hypervisor and supporting utilities. Its responsible for loading which ever kernel you've specified.

Naruni commented on 2014-09-01 17:08 (UTC)

When booting from UEFI, kernel cannot mount root partition due to "unknown filesystem vfat" Where are the kernel config options in this pkgbuild? 3.16.1-1-ARCH #1 SMP PREEMPT

ryad0m: autoconf is part of base-devel. This is assumed to be installed when using the AUR - see here: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Arch_User_Repository The base-devel group, for reference: https://www.archlinux.org/groups/x86_64/base-devel/ So no, it should _NOT_ be added to makedepends.

ryad0m commented on 2014-08-22 12:58 (UTC)

Please, add core/autoconf in makedepends

I think that with the last update of libiscsi (1.7.0-2 -> 1.12.0-1), xen should be recompiled.
