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

@JohnTh: 4.7.1-2 fixed it. Additionally, Xen resumed a vm across the upgrade and boots, which is the first time that's worked in a while without a lot of finagling.

@JohnTh: "I will think about maintaining"... and? :)

@Refutationalist See if the latest commit on my gitlab repository fixes this? It applies this patch: http://xenbits.xen.org/gitweb/?p=xen.git;a=patch;h=9714f6b87e19b32d3a6663a20df6610265c4bfe5 Discussed here: https://lists.xenproject.org/archives/html/xen-devel/2016-09/msg02889.html cheers

@JohnTh Your recent commit to 4.7.1 and pv-grub doesn't seem to boot w/ pv-grub x86_64. I'm going use an earlier pv-grub, but this is a dev server so I can test packages, if that helps. Here's the failure: ============= Init TPM Front ================ Tpmfront:Error Unable to read device/vtpm/0/backend-id during tpmfront initialization! error = ENOENT Tpmfront:Info Shutting down tpmfront pin_table(x) returned 850876 Error 9: Unknown boot failure Press any key to continue...

Hi, A patch was released to fix stubdom compile. This should give access to pvgrub. This package needs testing before being pushed (I haven't been able to do any). https://gitlab.com/johnth/aur-xen/ With this patch and indentation fixed in stubdom/vtpmmgr/{log.c,disk_read.c}, the package appears to compile. https://xenbits.xen.org/gitweb/?p=xen.git;a=commit;h=668e4edf92fcf7cb929eed221059a3eeb02722c3 Cheers.

Building with `multilib-build` works. However when installing with `yaourt -U ..`, there are conflicting files with the xenstore package: http://sprunge.us/ZhNj When removed, xen installs correctly. Thanks for your assistance o7.

JohnTh commented on 2016-10-29 21:51 (UTC)

I would strongly suggest you use multilib-build from the devtools package (as opposed to yaourt) for this package. That way we get the same build environment. Otherwise, update, and see if you still get the error. https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/DeveloperWiki:Building_in_a_Clean_Chroot Yes, I noticed a build failed in the same place (OVMF) on my CI three days ago (on the 27th), but the days before and after have built fine. https://gitlab.com/johnth/aur-xen/pipelines I will think about maintaining.

Hello, building this package fails. http://sprunge.us/LcKE When I manually add -fpic to the gcc args in aur-xen/src/xen-4.7.0/tools/firmware/ovmf-dir-remote/BaseTools/Source/C/Makefiles/header.makefile the build fails again. http://sprunge.us/dFDE Using the PKGBUILD by @JohnTh doesn't work either.

ArthurBorsboom commented on 2016-10-22 12:14 (UTC)

@JohnTh, are you interested in maintaining this package, since you are already doing that on gitlab?
