[Xen-devel] RE: linux-2.6.18-xen.hg

["Jayaraman, Bhaskar" <Bhaskar.Jayaraman@xxxxxxx>]

Keir, so far I've been putting the linux-2.6.18-xen.hg directory inside the xen 
directory. With your suggestion I tried it having adjacent to it, i.e. in the 
same level as the xen directory is, if that's what you meant. That also 
resulted in make dist trying to do an "hg clone", which isn't working in my 
case and hence all the pain that I'm going through.

So I did the next best thing commented out the following lines from 
"xen-3.3.0/buildconfigs/src.hg-clone":

#XEN_LINUX_HGREV  ?= tip
#__repo=$(XEN_LINUX_HGREPO) ; \
#ln -s $${__repo} $(LINUX_SRCDIR) ; \
#$(HG) clone $${__repo#file://} $(LINUX_SRCDIR) ; \
#__parent=$$($(HG) -R $(LINUX_SRCDIR) path default) ; \
#$(HG) -R $(LINUX_SRCDIR) pull $${__parent} ; \

The build is proceeding fine now.

Thanks,
Bhaskar.

If you have a linux-2.6.18-xen.hg adjacent to your Xen tree then that should
avoid an 'hg clone'. I have a permanently checked out linux tree and never
trigger hg clone during build.
