Re: [XenARM] Regarding ARMv7a architecture boards :: Xen-Unstable



Hi, Ian:

In last week, I've downloaded and compiled xen-arm and dom0 linux from
stabelini's git tree.

1. Regarding the hardware platform, do you use iMX53, Xen-ARM dev farm?
or stick to "Fast Model" emulator?
(BTW. how fast it is?)
I actually downloaded the emulator, but failed to run it over my pc.
(looks very difficult to build up an emulator board in the emulator)

2. At the beginning of xen-arm, it would fail if the hardware does not
have Hyp mode.
Does that mean iMx 53 supports Hyp mode? (w/ virtualization extension)
or just assumes Fast model?

Seehwan.
