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

a)thanx for package PKGBUILD I tried to create it myself but I lost on python-dev dependency. b) Xen wasn't build succesfull with stubdom option: (i have ukrainian locale, some parts of output was translated myself with *TRANSLATED mark) ....... checking how to define a 32-bit word... .long checking if .align assembly directive is logarithmic... no checking if the .align directive accepts an 0x90 fill in .text... yes checking for unsigned short... yes checking size of unsigned short... configure: error: cannot compute sizeof (unsigned short) See `config.log' for more details. make[1]: *** [Makefile:174: gmp-x86_64] Error 77 make[1]: Leaving directory '/tmp/yaourt-tmp-carbon/aur-xen/src/xen-4.7.0/stubdom' make: *** [Makefile:105: install-stubdom] Помилка 2 (*TRANSLATED: Error 2 ) ==> ПОМИЛКА: Стався збій у build().

Please keep in mind for Xen on EFI to work on kernel 4.7.x, you need to compile the linux kernel with this patch: http://lkml.iu.edu/hypermail/linux/kernel/1608.2/03448.html

Since the old package was broken, John's package has replaced the old package. Please be defensive for production systems and give your feedback, so I know if the package works or needs improvements.

ArthurBorsboom commented on 2016-10-08 08:06 (UTC)

Hi John, Why don't we try to merge your PKGBUILD into this package (or the other way around)? Are you in for that?

JohnTh commented on 2016-10-06 19:55 (UTC)

There is a rather wild xen-4.7 PKGBUILD here: https://gitlab.com/johnth/aur-xen I have only tested it EFI booting (with refind) on Intel. XSA-190 has not yet been added to that. Cheers.

ArthurBorsboom commented on 2016-10-06 17:56 (UTC)

I just noticed the package has been disowned. I have adopted the package and I will give it a try to upgrade it... Any help is appreciated.

ArthurBorsboom commented on 2016-10-06 17:54 (UTC)

Any indication to upgrade the package to 4.7? Need help?

daniel_shub commented on 2016-08-30 18:24 (UTC)

I also cannot build 4.5.1 in a clean chroot. It looks like Xen has moved on to 4.7.0: https://www.xenproject.org/downloads/xen-archives/supported-xen-project-47-series/xen-470.html @kantras any chance of getting an update or taking on a co-maintainer to help out. The PKGBUILD is way beyond my comfort level to help with and I don't really have hardware to test on so I am really of no help.

Package is currently broken; needs to be updated to support GCC 6, etc. Have tried modifying current PKGBUILD with -Wno-misleading-indentation flag on line 129: export CFLAGS='-fno-caller-saves -Wno-misleading-indentation' makepkg still fails to build.
