Hi, I am trying to build the XEN tools for our port of XEN to our Cortex A15-based platform.
I am using the repo at git://xenbits.xenproject.org/xen.git to cross-compile the tools into our rootfs.
This repo is what we are using for our Hypervisor development also.
When building the tools, I found that libaio does not build for ARM since it was missing tools/libaio/src/syscall-arm.h.
I found a version on the web so that I could continue.
I also found that xc_dom_elfloader.c’s function, xc_dom_guest_type(), did not know about the EM_ARM machine type.
Am I using the wrong repo for development of the tools for ARM?
If not, the twiki seems to indicate that xl is working on ARM to create guest machines. How can that be if libxc and libaio seem to be missing ARM support?
Currently, I am getting the following when trying to create a guest machine with xl:
# xl create -d dom1.cfg
Parsing config from dom1.cfg
Calling printf_info_one_json...
printf_info: unable to format domain config as JSON (YAJL:1)
