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

So, it should be being ran, the problem would be that the script was modified more than just the default kernel (for example, LTS kernels) and it seems to think that the xen-syms file is another kernel. I'll update the package (following the old 4.3.2 package by moving syms to a different location) and upload an updated version

If I generate the grub.cfg are the 09_xen script being executed? The boot order must be xen-4.4.0.gz kernel to the first place instead of xen-syms

I had two source tarballs prepared - one for whilst I was debugging across multiple systems and one for release - guess which one I uploaded .. Reuploaded with exit removed.

There is a mistake in the PKGBUILD file. Just before the ATI patch, in the prepare statement, an exit is breaking makepkg. If this is intentional, please advise. Tx for the package however.

Since I don't really have the setup/time currently to test it properly (I'm using a hardware modified NVidia card for passthrough) I've included the patch but left it commented out; when uncommented it did build, but is untested.

evilsephiroth commented on 2014-03-10 21:26 (UTC)

do we have to enable the patch in the building process?

kantras commented on 2014-03-10 21:15 (UTC)

Ok, resolved - driver issue within the VM; once I reloaded the drivers, it came up without an issue. Tested loading a game as well as re-evaluating the Windows Experience Index. Uploading the update now.

OK, build tests completed. I've uploaded the new package xen-4.3 for anyone who doesn't want to upgrade to 4.4 yet. Unfortunately, i'm currently trying out 4.4 on a devel workstation and GPU passthrough isn't working for me. I've started to look into it, as well as research options to resolve; theres been a major rework of qemu-xen which completely breaks the patch we previously used to get this to work better. At this stage, I can upload what I have so far, but be warned that I can't confirm whether gpu passthrough will work for you (as I can't personally do it right now)

@BeepDog: Yes, currently in build-testing @kingd: am aware, currently in build-testing @evilsephiroth: I would suspect so; theres not been too much recent changes on that front, from what I've been following on the change log
