Oh, so you are on Debian/Ubuntu... Which version (so that I can try to
replicate your configuration) ?

Mmm... ok, that's the libvirt part. How did you install Xen? I'm sure I
asked that already, but I can't remember whether or no you answered (if
yes, sorry).

Last time I tired to compile libvirt with libxl=yes on a Debian system
it was failing because of some issues with the Xen Debian packages (or
so I recall), although that was with Xen 4.3.0.

So, did you also build Xen yourself or you apt-get installed it?

Mmm... I have to admit that the most of the testing I did when working
on the patch for libvirt that introduced the call to
libxl_get_physinfo() that is failing, happened on Xen 4.3, but I'm sure
I tested it with 4.2 a couple of times, and I don't see why it wouldn't
work there...

If you tell me the precise version of the distro you're using I'll see
if I can give it a try.

Regards,
Dario
