FreeBSD/Xen port
The port will only run as a guest (ie. domU) right now, on i386/PAE platforms.
Status
- domU is self-hosting on 8-CURRENT (can compile world + kernel in a VM).
- Xen 3.0.3 and earlier are not supported.
- Device structure needs to be cleaned up, it's not conformant to newbus.
- SMP and amd64 are targeted for support by May for RELENG_6 and RELENG_7.
- dom0 support is not currently on the roadmap.
TODO
- Substantial cleanup needed - check with Kip Macy or Scott Long for further details if you are interested.
Download
One can either use the p4 //depot/projects/xen31 repository or the cvsup mirror on cvsup10.freebsd.org or cvsup18.freebsd.org. For the latter one just needs to change one's normal supfile from targeting src-all to targeting p4-cvs-xen31.
To help get one started a small file-backed disk and some sample configuration files can be found at:
