I suggest you install blktap if you can because it is significantly faster than qdisk at the moment. Otherwise if you use a physical partition and specify phy: in the config file you should get the kernel based blkback that is the fastest option available. > bootloader = '/usr/xen42/bin/pygrub' > vcpus = '1' > memory = '30720' > > root = '/dev/xvda2 ro' > disk = [ > 'file:/home/xen/debian/disk.img,xvda2,w', > 'file:/home/xen/debian/swap.img,xvda1,w', > ] > > name = 'debian' > > on_poweroff = 'destroy' > on_reboot = 'restart' > on_crash = 'restart' > > And the output from booting: > > [ 0.000000] Initializing cgroup subsys cpuset > [ 0.000000] Initializing cgroup subsys cpu > [ 0.000000] Linux version 2.6.32-5-xen-amd64 (Debian > 2.6.32-34squeeze1) (dannf@xxxxxxxxxx) (gcc version 4.3.5 (Debian > 4.3.5-4) ) #1 SMP Thu May 19 01:16:47 UTC 2011 > [ 0.000000] Command line: root=/dev/xvda2 ro root=/dev/xvda2 ro > [ 0.000000] KERNEL supported cpus: > [ 0.000000] Intel GenuineIntel > [ 0.000000] AMD AuthenticAMD > [ 0.000000] Centaur CentaurHauls > [ 0.000000] ACPI in unprivileged domain disabled > [ 0.000000] released 0 pages of unused memory > [ 0.000000] BIOS-provided physical RAM map: > [ 0.000000] Xen: 0000000000000000 - 00000000000a0000 (usable) > [ 0.000000] Xen: 00000000000a0000 - 0000000000100000 (reserved) > [ 0.000000] Xen: 0000000000100000 - 0000000780000000 (usable) > [ 0.000000] DMI not present or invalid. > [ 0.000000] last_pfn = 0x780000 max_arch_pfn = 0x400000000 > [ 0.000000] last_pfn = 0x100000 max_arch_pfn = 0x400000000 > [ 0.000000] init_memory_mapping: 0000000000000000-0000000100000000 > [ 0.000000] init_memory_mapping: 0000000100000000-0000000780000000 > [ 0.000000] RAMDISK: 016ba000 - 02feb000 > [ 0.000000] No NUMA configuration found > [ 0.000000] Faking a node at 0000000000000000-0000000780000000 > [ 0.000000] Bootmem setup node 0 0000000000000000-0000000780000000 > [ 0.000000] NODE_DATA [0000000000008000 - 000000000000ffff] > [ 0.000000] bootmap [00000000008c7000 - 00000000009b6fff] pages f0 > [ 0.000000] (8 early reservations) ==> bootmem [0000000000 - 0780000000] > [ 0.000000] #0 [0000000000 - 0000001000] BIOS data page ==> > [0000000000 - 0000001000] > [ 0.000000] #1 [0006bee000 - 0006c29000] XEN PAGETABLES ==> > [0006bee000 - 0006c29000] > [ 0.000000] #2 [0000006000 - 0000008000] TRAMPOLINE ==> > [0000006000 - 0000008000] > [ 0.000000] #3 [0001000000 - 00016999d4] TEXT DATA BSS ==> > [0001000000 - 00016999d4] > [ 0.000000] #4 [00016ba000 - 0002feb000] RAMDISK ==> > [00016ba000 - 0002feb000] > [ 0.000000] #5 [0002feb000 - 0006bee000] XEN START INFO ==> > [0002feb000 - 0006bee000] > [ 0.000000] #6 [0000100000 - 00008c7000] PGTABLE ==> > [0000100000 - 00008c7000] > [ 0.000000] #7 [0006c29000 - 000a043000] PGTABLE ==> > [0006c29000 - 000a043000] > [ 0.000000] Zone PFN ranges: > [ 0.000000] DMA 0x00000000 -> 0x00001000 > [ 0.000000] DMA32 0x00001000 -> 0x00100000 > [ 0.000000] Normal 0x00100000 -> 0x00780000 > [ 0.000000] Movable zone start PFN for each node > [ 0.000000] early_node_map[2] active PFN ranges > [ 0.000000] 0: 0x00000000 -> 0x000000a0 > [ 0.000000] 0: 0x00000100 -> 0x00780000 > [ 0.000000] SFI: Simple Firmware Interface v0.7 http://simplefirmware.org > [ 0.000000] SMP: Allowing 1 CPUs, 0 hotplug CPUs > [ 0.000000] No local APIC present > [ 0.000000] APIC: disable apic facility > [ 0.000000] PM: Registered nosave memory: 00000000000a0000 - > 0000000000100000 > [ 0.000000] PCI: Warning: Cannot find a gap in the 32bit address range > [ 0.000000] PCI: Unassigned devices with 32bit resource registers may > break!

Qemu uses the gntdev device (/dev/xen/gntdev) to open the grant table (necessary to implement xen backends in userspace). There doesn't seem anything equivalent on NetBSD, hence it fails... _______________________________________________ Xen-devel mailing list Xen-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.xensource.com/xen-devel
