Hi George,

I didn't test official Renesas yocto layer for Lager board.

But general approach to bring-up xen-tools in Dom0 rootfs are follow: 

1. clone meta-virtualization layer along with other layers

2. Append xen-base package into default package list (e.g. core-image-minimal or weston-image-minimal).

3. In addition you need to add Xen specific options to Dom0 kernel config (please refer to [1] as reference).

After that please refer to Oleksandr mail about DomU start-up.

With the best regards,

Hi all,

Hello,

I was able to bring up Dom0 in lager board by steps followed by charles.
What could be the steps I could follow to bring up DomU in xen for lager
board.?..

You can give a look to:
    - https://wiki.xen.org/wiki/Mainline_Linux_Kernel_Configs
    - https://wiki.xenproject.org/wiki/Xen_ARM_with_Virtualization_Extensions#DomU_kernel_and_DTS

Alternatively, you can find a distribution where the kernel has Xen options enabled.

For testing and some development on ARM64 I use Ubuntu for DomU [2], [3]

It may be the case in Yocto, or you can look at centos (see [1]).

How to bring xen-utils in the filesystem(yocto build) of Dom0

linux for configuring DomU.

I don't know much about Yocto. I have CCed Iurri who I think is using Yocto. It might be able to help you here.
