Hi Peter,
i played around to compile the kernel, the normal ones worked, xen aborted
with an error.
I found the (?) error in the file .../arch/i386/kernel/head-xen.S where a
macro is used, which is not able to handle whitespaces correctly - i think.
So i redefined one #define from include/asm/boot.h and now it compiles
:-)
The relevant line in xen-head.S is the #define (new in line 158):
#ifdef CONFIG_XEN_COMPAT_030002
/*
* __xen_guest information
*/
.macro utoa value
.if (\value) < 0 || (\value) >= 0x10
utoa (((\value)>>4)&0x0fffffff)
.endif
.if ((\value) & 0xf) < 10
.byte '0' + ((\value) & 0xf)
.else
.byte 'A' + ((\value) & 0xf) - 10
.endif
.endm
#define LOAD_PHYSICAL_ADDR
((0x100000+CONFIG_PHYSICAL_ALIGN-1)&~(CONFIG_PHYSICAL_ALIGN-1))
.section __xen_guest
.ascii "GUEST_OS=linux,GUEST_VER=2.6"
.ascii ",XEN_VER=xen-3.0"
.ascii ",VIRT_BASE=0x"
utoa __PAGE_OFFSET
.ascii ",ELF_PADDR_OFFSET=0x"
utoa __PAGE_OFFSET
.ascii ",VIRT_ENTRY=0x"
utoa (__PAGE_OFFSET + LOAD_PHYSICAL_ADDR +
VIRT_ENTRY_OFFSET)
.ascii ",HYPERCALL_PAGE=0x"
utoa ((LOAD_PHYSICAL_ADDR +
HYPERCALL_PAGE_OFFSET)>>PAGE_SHIFT)
.ascii ",FEATURES=writable_page_tables"
.ascii "|writable_descriptor_tables"
.ascii "|auto_translated_physmap"
.ascii "|pae_pgdir_above_4gb"
.ascii "|supervisor_mode_kernel"
#ifdef CONFIG_X86_PAE
.ascii ",PAE=yes[extended-cr3]"
#else
.ascii ",PAE=no"
#endif
.ascii ",LOADER=generic"
.byte 0
#endif /* CONFIG_XEN_COMPAT_030002 */
