Re: [Xen-devel] building xen activated arm kernel for Tegra k1

[burak sarac <burak@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hey Julien,

ÂThank you for the answer, my first resource was your video for the arm platform. you have done great job guys! my target also is running Opennebula on Jetson top of Xen it has cortex A15 as Versatile but a bit more cheaper:) Looks like all those configs by default 'y' in Nvidia config. I spent some time yesterday on wiki. This week I will try to run Xen on it and come back if I will have some trouble.

Thank you again

Have a nice weekend
Burak

Dear all,

Hi,

 I just get my Jetson Tegra k1 and was planning to try out Xen on it.
It has a 3.10 kernel with Ubuntu 14.04. Also I have downloaded kernel
source. I am quite new on kernel building but I have done before via
menuconfig for additional modules. My question is; as I have already
source and .config from Nvidia do you think below guide would be enough
for me to rebuild kernel for arm?

http://wiki.xen.org/wiki/Mainline_Linux_Kernel_Configs

This is a good start for building the kernel. Although, some options may not work/exist on ARM such as:

- *X86* of course :)
- CONFIG_*_PCI_*
- CONFIG_PARAVIRT_*
- CONFIG_HYPERVISOR_GUEST
- all tmem support (I don't even know if someone tried to use it on ARM)
- CONFIG_ACPI

I will see if we can update this page during the next document day for ARM.

You can also give a look to the xen wiki page about ARM. It will give you some tips about building Xen and debugging guest kernel.

If something is missing or you have an issue that you don't understand, just let us know.

Regards,
