hello all!

I have found old Sun works with xen-3.4.2 and updated it to xen-3.4.4

I'll try to port xen-4.1.

can I file a bugs with issues on solaris based platform?
where can I file a bugs - I have bout some issues and I'd like to provide fixes for solaris.


I'm interested specifically in HVM domU support. I'm using NCP3 on a minimal Debian 6.0 dom0 (with a kernel from XCP 1.5 and the Debian 6.0 version of Xen 4.0.1 with patches to qemu-dm to support custom graphics and input servers for desktop use), but would like to update to both a newer Solaris distribution and a newer Xen version. NCP3 hangs on boot on any versions of Xen newer than 4.0.1 that I tried (even on 4.0.1, the kernel needs to be patched ), and illumos hangs on boot on all the Xen versions that I tried. These hangs are related to the PVHVM drivers (the install systems run OK, and they don't include them). Right now, I am trying to debug the problem with NCP3 and then will move onto illumos (I'm not sure if the problem is the same or not; illumos hangs sooner in the boot process than NCP3).
