Hi,Is it possible to host a split driver between 2 user domains. There is no concrete documentation on doing so. I have basically copied the NETIF backend and frontend drivers and created the split TEMPIF drivers. I have also changed the python scripts to create devices. When used between dom0 and domU this works.By changing the protocol type of device i was be able to send and recieve socket buffers, by just adding network protocol hooks, like ip_rcv(). But i am unable to do so between 2 domUs. Is there anything special that i have to do. I am using XEN 3.0 testing.I have enabled the backend on one domU by adding the following line in the boot config file as >> tempif = yesand added the following info in boot config file of domU hosting the frontend >> tempvif = [ 'backend=1'] assuming domU hosting the backend is 1. While creating the device using python script, without the following line back = { 'hotplug-status' : 'connected' } error when i execute xm create is>>Error: Device 0 (tempvif) could not be connected. Hotplug scripts not working otherwise the device is created on the domainU hosting frontend, without the probe functions calling the backend. therefore i see NO ANY COMMUNICATION BETWEEN XENBUS and BACKEND for TEMPIF drivers thanks in advance, looking forward for some insight abhay _______________________________________________ Xen-devel mailing list Xen-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.xensource.com/xen-devel
