[Xen-users] Can't build kernel with Xen 3.2.0

[Jeremie Le Hen <jeremie@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi,

I'm struggling to compile Xen 3.2.0.  I don't want to get sources with
Mercurial, therefore I'm using "make world XEN_LINUX_SOURCE=tarball".

First, right after extracting xen-3.2.0.tar.gz, there is no kernel
source directory to drop my .config file, as explained in [1].  When do
I have a chance to configure the kernel when using the ``world''
target?

Suprisingly, Xen 3.1 provided shipped with "linux-2.6-xen-sparse" while
Xen 3.2 is not.  How does the Linux kernel tree get patched with this
new release?  I've tried "make prep-kernels XEN_LINUX_SOURCE=tarball"
but it only extracts the tarball and then makes oldconfig.

Finally, when running "make world XEN_LINUX_SOURCE=tarball" with the
default .config (provided by Xen), the kernel build always fail very
early with the following message:

% make[4]: Entering directory 
`/root/build/xen-3.2.0/build-linux-2.6.18-xen_x86_32'
% make -C /root/build/xen-3.2.0/linux-2.6.18 
O=/root/build/xen-3.2.0/build-linux-2.6.18-xen_x86_32 vmlinuz
% make[6]: *** No rule to make target `vmlinuz'.  Stop.
% make[5]: *** [vmlinuz] Error 2
% make[4]: *** [vmlinuz] Error 2
% make[4]: Leaving directory 
`/root/build/xen-3.2.0/build-linux-2.6.18-xen_x86_32'

Any idea?

Thank you.
