One I see as missing right now is Solaris 10 X86 with gcc building 64bit

The buildfarm has support for reporting via a proxy server. An

VMWare Server is indeed a fine product, which I use extensively.

I am not sure what our Windows support is like for x86_64. Magnus has
one for MSVC (for which buildfarm support is nearly done, but not
quite). But I don't see one for MinGW. OTOH, Windows is not free (in
either sense) and setting up a build environment there is quite a bit
harder than on Unix platforms.


yeah improving windows coverage might be a nice thing - some other
random thoughts might include:
*) a linux x86_64 box with say the non-commercial version of icc (intel
c compiler)
*) recent netbsd/amd64
*) solaris 10/x86 - gcc and sun studio
*) maybe solaris express/opensolaris?
*) as said early we don't seem to have any suse/novell coverage at all


I'll see what I can do on the NetBSD and Solaris fronts.

You need that CPU support if you want to do full virtualization at all. 
Otherwise you can only use para-virtualization. Para-virtualization has much 
better performance, but full virtualization is more flexible because you 
don't need special kernel support in the guest.

... if the kernel of the OS has Xen support, there will be no
performance penalty (only 2%-3%) (Para-virtualization). Otherwise, there
will be full-virtualization, and we should expect a performance loss
about 30% for each guest OS (like Windows).

The other thing to consider is that CentOS 5 has Xen built right in, so 
you should be able run VMs without VMWare on it.

My question still stands on what OS's we need coverage for.

It will have CentOS 4.4 X86_64 as the base os with VMWare Server running 
on it.


 

I am willing to run any X86 or X64 OS’s in VM’s as buildfarm clients. 

 


What OS’s do we need coverage for?

[HACKERS] What X86/X64 OS's do we need coverage for?

2007-04-05 Thread Larry Rosenman
I'm in the process of building a new box that will have Dual Xeon 5120's
(Dual Core), and 4G of ram and 2.4T of disk (6x400G SATA).

 

It will have CentOS 4.4 X86_64 as the base os with VMWare Server running on
it. 

 

I am willing to run any X86 or X64 OS's in VM's as buildfarm clients.  

 

What OS's do we need coverage for?
