  • List-id: Xen user discussion <xen-users.lists.xensource.com>

I have managed to install xen-3.3.0 on my laptop and have it working properly 
so far.  I must offer my gratitude to the developers who built such a useful 
system.  VMware has been around for ages and yet for one reason or another I 
was not been exposed to it and therefore never before acquired an appreciation 
of its capabilities.  Xen allows otherwise isolated individuals to 'move to the 
next level', as it were, and greatly improve their knowledge of 
Enterprise-class systems and cluster services.  Thank you.

The hardware I am using is fairly uninteresting, a Dell Insprion 8200 (P4m 
1.6GHz, Nvidia) with half a gig of ram and a 120G HDD, which mostly works under 
Linux.  The OS was once a Slackware distribution but I have been working for 
some time now to convert it to a hand-rolled installation which violates the 
FSSTND in several ways, but which is nevertheless amusing as it provides 
opportunities to learn lessons on the practical value of autoconf and the 
assumptions that are commonly made by developers.

Needless to say I had some difficulty getting everything running, but no total 
showstoppers.  It helps that I've been using Linux for several years and so 
compiling packages from source is a routine activity.  I intend to experiment 
quite a bit with Xen as I realize that machine virtualization under a 
hypervisor will be a persistent feature of cluster computing for the forseeable 
future.  Now that I have a skeleton framework up and running my immediate plans 
are (in no particular order):

- My current testing domU boot environment fits in 4M disk and runs with only 
8M ram and some swap.  I have not yet aggressively optimised for space, and I 
doubt that I will bother doing much in that direction.  Static linked 
applications will far outstrip the modest requirements of this sort of setup, 
which is ideal for a firewall.  So, I will attempt to pass the PCMCIA bus 
and/or the on-board 10/100 Ethernet through to a domU and build a firewall.

- I'm considering also passing the USB ports through as well, but I don't know 
how practical that will be.  I expect headaches in this area and I would 
appreciate any practical tips from anyone who has made this sort of thing work 
on x86-32.

- I intend to Instantiate guest domains to isolate major network daemons from 
'work' domains and the firewall.  Servers for DNS, HTTP, NNTP, SMTP, etc will 
be isolated in small environments.  This seems rather straightforward.

- Obviously I like xen for the fact that testing arbitrary distros will become 
much, much easier.  ATM, I have a partition layout that accommodates three full 
operating system installations.  I should be able to pare that down to two 
without any risk whatsoever while using LVM to manage an arbitrary number of 
guest domains.  Perhaps now I'll get a chance to test-drive  Plan 9 and FreeBSD 
without also interrupting normal operations.

Beyond that, I envision IPV6 and all sorts of funky niche experimentations.  
This should be really interesting.  Soon, I may even develop an excuse to raise 
my consulting fees.  Heh.

At any rate, I have a few specific questions.  I'll interleave my text with the 
logs:

(XEN) Xen version 3.3.0 (src@) (gcc version 4.3.2 (GCC) ) Sun Nov 30 13:47:37 
UTC 2008

    If I futz with the compiler optimizations, xen does not boot.  In 
particular,
    -march=pentium3 -mtune-pentium3 -O3 doesn't work, and neither will
    -mfpmath=sse,387 -msse.  It would be useful to know where the
    problem is, but I have no idea where to start looking, or the reasons
    why it is inadvisable to do this.

    This driver is confusing, I fail to see its usefulness.  If I boot a 
    domU with xvc0 enabled (as opposed to tty), console messges
    do not appear, and I am unclear as to the reason.  It's probably
    something simple, but the documentation I have read to date
    does not clarify the distinction.

mice: PS/2 mouse device common for all mice

    Oddly enough, later vanilla kernels see the touchpad and clit as one
    device, but in the xensource kernel I get two /dev/input/mouse
    devices, both of which are required if I want point  and more
    importantly, 'click' on something.  Not a problem, but I suspect this
    bites some people.

So far so good.  I think I'll be putting a little more RAM in the box soon just 
on general principles as xen does increase the overhead a bit, but I'm 
certainly not complaining!  Thanks again.

Steve
