Patch series [8] was rebased on recent "staging branch"
(5e31789 tools/ocaml/libs/xb: Do not crash after xenbus is unmapped) and tested on Renesas Salvator-X board + H3 ES3.0 SoC (Arm64) with virtio-mmio disk backend [9] running in driver domain and unmodified Linux Guest running on existing virtio-blk driver (frontend). No issues were observed. Guest domain 'reboot/destroy'
use-cases work properly. Patch series was only build-tested on x86.

Please note, build-test passed for the following modes:
1. x86: CONFIG_HVM=y / CONFIG_IOREQ_SERVER=y (default)
2. x86: #CONFIG_HVM is not set / #CONFIG_IOREQ_SERVER is not set
3. Arm64: CONFIG_HVM=y / CONFIG_IOREQ_SERVER=y
4. Arm64: CONFIG_HVM=y / #CONFIG_IOREQ_SERVER is not set (default)
5. Arm32: CONFIG_HVM=y / CONFIG_IOREQ_SERVER=y
6. Arm32: CONFIG_HVM=y / #CONFIG_IOREQ_SERVER is not set (default)

I thought I woudl give a try to test the code, but I can't find a way to enable CONFIG_IOREQ_SERVER from the UI.

Looking at the Kconfig, it looks like CONFIG_IOREQ_SERVER doesn't have a prompt and is not selected by Arm.

Can you provide details how this can be built on Arm?

Please apply the attached patch to select IOREQ on Arm.

This is roughly what I wrote. I think a user should be able to select IOREQ via the menuconfig without any additional patch on top of your series.

Can you include a patch that would enable that?

Yes, do you prefer a separate patch or required changes could be folded in patch #14?

I would do a separate patch as IOREQ only really work after the full series applies.


Makes sense, I will do it for V6


Could we please negotiate *the last posting time* for me to able to prepare and push V6 not later than it?

The feature freeze is going to be happen tomorrow evening. I can't give you as specific time, but it is probably best if you respin v6 by tomorrow morning. This should give us some slack for any last minutes issues (if any).

Cheers,
