Re: [Xen-devel] Low-hanging fruit bugs for starting contributor

Indeed nested virtualization, I apologize for the accidental deletion,

While we would like to contribute to nested virtualization eventually, if there are other small bugs in other places in the hypervisor, that would be a good warm up as well.

Thanks,

Hi,

At Ravello/Oracle, we would be interested with contributing patches to the Xen hypervisor, especially in areas related , and our team have no experience with Xen.

Something seems to be missing here. Looking at Ravello's website, I suppose you mean nested virtualisation. If so, Andrew Cooper (you can get the email address from the MAINTAINERS file in xen.git) may have some ideas re bugs / small projects, and I would just CC him. I don't know whether any of these are simple enough though. 

I've read the contributor guideline, and I think that before contributing big patches, we should start with contributing small patches, to make sure we're fluent with the entire contribution process, e.g., coverity static analysis.

If you have specific questions, let me know and I will try to answer them. I am currently re-working part 2 of the training at https://wiki.xenproject.org/wiki/Contributor_Training and should have an updated version within a few days. Also, the #xendevel IRC channel (https://www.xenproject.org/help/irc.html) is usually quite good for developer related questions and short questions.

Regards

Lars
