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

I managed to compile it, by means of the following changes 1) do what hypernetoman suggests (removing a comment in a public header file) 2) applying this patch to PKGBUILD --- PKGBUILD 2016-03-17 22:45:49.670416160 +0100 +++ PKGBUILD.old 2016-03-17 22:45:31.183750160 +0100 @@ -129,7 +129,7 @@ build() { export CFLAGS=-fno-caller-saves ./autogen.sh ./configure PYTHON=/usr/bin/python2 --prefix=/usr --sbindir=/usr/bin --with-sysconfig-leaf-dir=conf.d --with-initddir=/etc/init.d \ - --enable-systemd --disable-docs --enable-stubdom --enable-qemu-traditional --enable-rombios \ + --enable-systemd --disable-docs --disable-stubdom --enable-qemu-traditional --enable-rombios \ --with-extra-qemuu-configure-args="--disable-bluez --disable-gtk --enable-spice --enable-usb-redir" # --enable-ovmf make LANG=C PYTHON=python2 } @@ -147,6 +147,9 @@ package() { install -Dm755 "$srcdir/09_xen" etc/grub.d/09_xen install -Dm644 "$srcdir/efi-xen.cfg" etc/xen/efi-xen.cfg + mkdir -p usr/lib/systemd/system + cp $srcdir/$pkgname-$pkgver/tools/hotplug/Linux/systemd/xenstored* usr/lib/systemd/system + # Fix paths in scripts, move to right locations and create missing directories sed -i 's:/var/run:/run:' etc/init.d/xencommons sed -i 's:/var/lock:/run/lock:' etc/xen/scripts/hotplugpath.sh

@johnTh by modifying the ferror it helps to compile the package, although this is not a real solution for this. Thank you. I force the test to always return 0

JohnTh commented on 2016-02-29 22:09 (UTC)

I am also getting this error. It was not happening a week ago. Package updates have broken something. The step that is failing is configuring stubdom/gmp-x86_64 Details are in stubdom/gmp-x86_64/config.log The sizeof type test configure programs build fine, but when run, return 1 because ferror(...) returns 1 after fprintf(...) in the programs built in this Xen build environment. This stops the configure, thought the programs still seem to function as intended, putting type sizes in conftest.val. Search for ferror in stubdom/gmp-x86_64/configure to show or modify the programs. I am still looking into why and how to fix.

@malinas Seems we encounter almost the same error, i have already use gcc-multilib and still experience this error. Any idea? pacman -Q | grep gcc gcc-libs-multilib 5.3.0-5 gcc-multilib 5.3.0-5 lib32-gcc-libs 5.3.0-5 checking size of unsigned short... configure: error: cannot compute sizeof (unsigned short) See `config.log' for more details.

I guess, I will just update my own 4.6 build from a year ago.

John, that is nice.. i already patched the broken pakcages back in Feb 2015, and actually ran a 4.6 unstable branch back then. However, server ben down some months and after update, I can't for the love of my life make xen see the LVM root on boot :/ I will give yours a try and cross my fingers! ,p

Hi, I have been having go updating the Xen AUR to latest versions (4.5.2 and 4.6.1) with most XSA patches. The files are here: https://gitlab.com/johnth/aur-xen/tree/xen-4.5 https://gitlab.com/johnth/aur-xen/tree/master Both branches should build without error using multilib-build, but are not well tested. These include ovmf and xen.efi. Let me know any suggestions.

Hi! Below is the full PKGBUILD for xen-docs updated to 4.5.1 so it is aligned with xen. Hope it helps. # Maintainer: M0Rf30 pkgname=xen-docs pkgver=4.5.1 pkgrel=1 pkgdesc="Xen 4 (docs)" arch=('i686' 'x86_64') url="http://xen.org/" license=('GPL') makedepends=('markdown' 'transfig' 'ghostscript') conflicts=('xen4' 'xen3' 'xen-hv-tools' 'libxen4') source=(http://bits.xensource.com/oss-xen/release/${pkgver}/xen-${pkgver}.tar.gz) package() { cd "$srcdir/xen-$pkgver" unset CFLAGS LDFLAGS ./configure --prefix=/usr --disable-xen --disable-tools --disable-stubdom --enable-docs make DESTDIR=$pkgdir install-docs } md5sums=('d12dc9e5e8bd22a68b5c7f53119221f1')

Hello! I was getting a compilation error both with xen-4.5.1 and xen-4.4.2 (packages xen and xen-4.4, resp.): gcc -E ... -o compat/grant_table.i compat/grant_table.c compat/grant_table.c:33:1: error: unterminated comment /* ^ compat/grant_table.c:28:0: error: unterminated #ifndef #ifndef __XEN_PUBLIC_GRANT_TABLE_H__ ^ Makefile:61: recipe for target 'compat/grant_table.i' failed make[3]: *** [compat/grant_table.i] Error 1 I've fixed it by adding this in the PKGBUILD previous to `make LANG=C PYTHON=python2` in build(): `sed -i.backup '33,54d' xen/include/public/grant_table.h` It removes the offendig block comment which prevents compilation. It fixes it for me both in xen and xen-4.4. Hope it helps.

KamijouTouma: did you look at Config.log, sounds more like a env-var issue. not a makepkg issue.
