Hello!
I have only managed to get Xen 4.5's Remus "working" on Linux Kernels less than 3.5. The provided remus-drbd, as detailed in docs/README.remus and available from https://github.com/rshriram/remus-drbd will not compile with Linux Kernels 3.6 and above.
One of these errors is that remus-drbd uses a two argument version of the macro kunmap_atomic found in include/linux/highmem.h This was deprecated and is no longer included in any Kernels above 3.6.
"error: macro "kunmap_atomic" passed 2 arguments, but takes just 1"
Is there a patch available? If not, what set up do the Remus devs use to test? I just need a "stable-ish" platform to modify remus on.
Now I did get Remus "working" on Linux 3.4, Ubuntu 14.04, and the custom remus-drbd. The issue I run into is that Remus only plugs and unplugs a few hundred times until there is a "Connection timeout error." It could be that I am using an "old" linux kernel version without much Xen integration, but I'm stumped about this error:
