Hi,
Thanks but, I cannot use a public server during a development stage of
Linux stuffs according to a company policy where I work.
I have a plan to release of Linux kernel at the Xen ARM home page in
the public domain once it is para-virtualized as you can see it in the
Xen ARM home page.
In the future, I hope anyone who works for the sorceforge based ARM
hypervisor project where you are involved will submit code to the Xen
ARM project.
Thanks,
Sang-bum

Hello Sang-bum,
It is nice to hear from the person who is behind xen-arm. Do you have a
plan to add public read-only access to your 2.6.27 source code
repository? I am interested in your progress. If your repository is
inside of firewall, there are a lot of free public servers. I am using
sourceforge.net. You can use cvs or svn in sourceforge.net. github.com
is another one for git.

Hi,
Excellent !
The released para-virtualized Linux 2.6.21 kernel for the Xen ARM
project would run on the Xen ARM on Android emulator.
However, you may need a patch to run an Android platform on Linux
kernel
2.6.21 and port device drivers
to Android emulator, as there is a problem with Linux kernel version
and Android platform.
Try and download vanila Linux kernel and then update it with Para-virt
Linux files of the package at http://wiki.xensource.com/xenwiki/XenARM.
For more details, please refer to section 2.2.2. of the Secure Xen on
ARM user's guide at the web page.
FYI, I can release para-virtualized Linux kernel 2.6.27 next year of
which Linux kernel version does not need such Android patch.
Thanks,
Sang-bum

Actually, I got it to work. The problem was that that I was compiling
on a 64-bit version of the ARM-ported emulator instead of a 32-bit
version, so I logged into a 32-bit machine and attempted to compile it.
However, there was one snag before it worked: a patch is needed:
--- Taken from http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=838
1.) A -msse2 cflags is missing in Makefile.target which make
_mm_add_si64 cannot be found:
/android-emulator-20080826/qemu/skins/skin_argb.h:286: warning:
implicit declaration of function '_mm_add_si64'
/android-emulator-20080826/qemu/skins/skin_argb.h:286: error:
incompatible types in assignment
2.) The error comment in build-emulator.sh is wrong.
Patch:
--- qemu.orig/Makefile.target 2008-08-29 10:01:41.000000000 +0800
+++ qemu/Makefile.target 2008-08-29 10:01:24.000000000 +0800

Once I applied this on a 32-bit Ubuntu 9.04 server box, the compile
succeeded and the two mini-os domains started running inside the
emulator.
Cool stuff! Thank you very much for your quick response.
What is the possibility of getting a full linux-2.6.21-arm running
inside the emulator?
Is that possible right now?

What optimization option do you use? -O2? -O0? Don't use -O0. You

segfault. Could you run backtrace command on segfault? In addition,
please provide more detail of your environment.

Subject: [XenARM] android emulator
Greetings,
I have followed all the instructions in the Secure XenARM manual and
I
went through section A.2 on how to build XenARM for the Android
emulator. I successfully built the arm-port of Xen as well as the
arm-port of mini-os and I built the patched version of QEMU 0.82.
When I tried to run the emulator, I get a segfault - From what I can
tell, the fault occurs at the very first instruction when QEMU
attempts to start running the Xen hypervisor.
Here is the output of a sample GDB session:
$ gdb emulator
$ (gdb) run -guest0 0x01c00000 mini-os.elf -guest1 0x02c00000

Any ideas on where I could start debugging this? Or are there updated
patches to make this work?
