[kvm-devel] KVM-61/62 build fails on SLES 10
Whereas KVM-60 builds out of the box on SLES 10 SP1 (assuming gcc 3.4 is installed), KVM-61 and KVM-62 don't. They fail with: make[1]: Entering directory `/scratch/KVM/kvm-61/kernel' # include header priority 1) INUX 2) ERNELDIR 3) include-compat make -C /lib/modules/2.6.16.54-0.2.5-smp/build M=`pwd` \ LINUXINCLUDE=-I`pwd`/include -Iinclude -I`pwd`/include-compat \ -include include/linux/autoconf.h \ $@ make[2]: Entering directory `/usr/src/linux-2.6.16.54-0.2.5-obj/x86_64/smp' make -C ../../../linux-2.6.16.54-0.2.5 O=../linux-2.6.16.54-0.2.5-obj/x86_64/smp LD /scratch/KVM/kvm-61/kernel/built-in.o CC [M] /scratch/KVM/kvm-61/kernel/svm.o In file included from command line:1: /scratch/KVM/kvm-61/kernel/external-module-compat.h:10:28: error: linux/compiler.h: No such file or directory /scratch/KVM/kvm-61/kernel/external-module-compat.h:12:26: error: linux/string.h: No such file or directory Trying to fiddle the include path to ensure that it finds /usr/src/linux/include then produces an error for linux/clocksource.h. SLES 10 SP1 uses a kernel whose version is 2.6.16.54-0.2.5-smp, i.e. 2.6.16 plus various back-ported bits. However, SLES 10 SP1 is the current version of SuSE Linux Enterprise Server, so in some sense this is current. KVM was configured with ./configure --prefix=/usr/local/kvm/kvm-61 \ --qemu-cc=/scratch/gcc-3.4/bin/gcc-3.4 Michael - This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft Defy all challenges.

As far as I can see, no KVM since about KVM-37 has actually run on a kernel that old, due to the lack of hrtimer_init and friends. KVM-60 may build, but it certainly doesn't run, so KVM-61/62's inability to build is of no consequence. Michael - This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft Defy all challenges.

[kvm-devel] SLES 10 install failing on KVM-28
With KVM-28, attempting to install SLES 10 x86_64 from its DVD gives a blank black screen as soon as the installer switches from text mode, after the kernel has booted and the text-mode non-interactive part of yast has run: the window resizes from the text mode size, and is redrawn black, and then things stop, with kvm consuming almost no CPU. If one tries the -std-vga option, then the same point is reached, only the console also fills with kvm: get_dirty_pages returned -2 The command line was /usr/local/kvm/bin/qemu-system-x86_64 -hda /scratch/sda6/VM/8GB_2 -cdrom \ /dev/hda -m 1024 -k en-gb -net nic,macaddr=52:54:00:01:02:01 -net tap \ -boot d -std-vga and the host is an Intel Core2 running SLES 10 x86_64. On the plus side, kvm successfully works with our PXE/autoyast SuSE 9.3 install system, even if SuSE 9.3 is now history...
