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

The build flag --with-system-ovmf works the same as --with-system-seabios in that it should contain a path such as --with-system-ovmf=/usr/share/ovmf/ovmf_code_x64.bin. Cannot make it boot properly with it tho, unsure how to tell it about split ovmf images.

@JohnTh Thanks a lot, rebuilding kernel helped me

Hey Lazycat, This is an Arch linux 4.12 kernel bug due to CONFIG_INTEL_ATOMISP https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1711298 Arch bug here https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/55447 The 201707 install disk uses 4.11 and boots Arch used 4.12 from 2017-07-05 https://git.archlinux.org/svntogit/packages.git/commit/?h=packages/linux&id=6e70fcab0f7e068216f579f72385175113587083 You can build a 4.12 kernel with CONFIG_INTEL_ATOMISP=n or use the Arch Linux archive: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Arch_Linux_Archive#How_to_restore_all_packages_to_a_specific_date For the spice error, makedepend libcacard The spice Arch package removed it as a depend in 0.12.8+8+ga957a90b

I can confirm the observation of asura for a fresh arch install. installing spice-glib did work for me as well

asura commented on 2017-08-16 16:17 (UTC)

For anyone having trouble to build this package and getting spice dependency errors ERROR: User requested feature spice configure was not able to find it. Install spice-server(>=0.12.0) and spice-protocol(>=0.12.3) devel Installing community/spice-glib and community/spice-gtk3 solved the issue for me.

Hi das_j, just started building for a naked arch... seems autoconf and patch are missing as dependencies

tony_42 commented on 2017-07-20 15:51 (UTC)

Hi das_j, looks like there is a patch for the build failure: https://xenbits.xen.org/gitweb/?p=xen.git;a=commit;h=672949d6c61d9cba01c5b414eed9d522082f04d3

JohnTh, can you please provide a link for the 4.9-rc8 version that have fixes for the warnings? I've been using this: https://downloads.xenproject.org/release/xen/4.9.0-rc8/ and I'm still getting all the warnings with gcc7. Nevermind, all the errors I was having were for other packages inside of xen (ie qemu, ipxe)

JohnTh commented on 2017-06-07 08:40 (UTC)

The upgrade to gcc7 brings a number of new warnings that show up in building xen-4.8.1 My xen PKGBUILD has diverged a bit from this one, but should build xen 4.8.1 (without stubdom!) https://gitlab.com/johnth/aur-xen/tree/master Either fix the files, or change the C(PP)FLAGS; remove Werror, or use -Wno-error= for each error warning. This needs to be done for each component with error warnings (xen, ipxe, ovmf, vtpm). Most of the warnings have fixes upstream, and are included in xen-4.9.0-rc8. I am unable to build stubdom with the current Arch packages, getting linking errors: ld -nostdlib -L/build/xen/src/xen-4.8.1/stubdom/cross-root-x86_64/x86_64-xen-elf/lib -m elf_x86_64 -T /build/xen/src/xen-4.8.1/stubdom/mini-os-x86_64-vtpmmgr/arch/x86/minios-x86_64.lds /build/xen/src/xen-4.8.1/stubdom/mini-os-x86_64-vtpmmgr/mini-os.o -o /build/xen/src/xen-4.8.1/stubdom/mini-os-x86_64-vtpmmgr/mini-os /build/xen/src/xen-4.8.1/stubdom/mini-os-x86_64-vtpmmgr/mini-os.o: In function `vtpmmgr_GroupRegister': /build/xen/src/xen-4.8.1/stubdom/vtpmmgr/vtpm_cmd_handler.c:555: undefined reference to `tpmrsa_free''
