If so, howNo.could I know the corresponding kernel version to a given xen release? I tried to find answer for myself on the following wiki page, but it is not latest enough.Anything past 3.0 kernel should work. Every Linux kernel release we fix bugs and add new features. They are the kernel releases in the git repository http://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/konrad/xen.git ? Look in Paravirt Wiki for the roadmap of what we want to have in 3.2 and 3.3 Linux kernel. See, really good roadmap! http://wiki.xen.org/xenwiki/DistributionSupport 2, I found some interesting source files in xen-4.1.1 release, I listed them below: $ ll drwx------ 4 royo royo 16384 2011-10-12 00:20 arch/ drwx------ 5 royo royo 16384 2011-06-15 00:03 common/ -rw-r--r-- 1 royo royo 19185 2011-06-15 00:03 COPYING drwx------ 2 royo royo 16384 2011-06-15 00:03 crypto/ drwx------ 8 royo royo 16384 2011-06-15 00:03 drivers/ drwx------ 9 royo royo 16384 2011-06-15 00:03 include/ -rw-r--r-- 1 royo royo 5529 2011-06-15 00:03 Makefile -rw-r--r-- 1 royo royo 3498 2011-06-15 00:03 Rules.mk drwx------ 3 royo royo 16384 2011-06-15 00:03 tools/ drwx------ 4 royo royo 16384 2011-06-15 00:03 xsm/ Are these files going to replace or be added to linux kernel source while making dm0? I am amazed that this release can be installed toWhy would they? Sorry, I misunderstood xen-4.1.1 as part of dom0, and would be merged into kernel to produce a dom0, but I know I was wrong. :) Thanks, Royo _______________________________________________ Xen-devel mailing list Xen-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.xensource.com/xen-devel
