I successfully compiled against Xen 3.4.1 and tried to boot it on
XenServer 5.0r3, but unfortunately it failed with roughly the same
error as the precompiled kernel on sources:
elf_xen_addr_calc_check: ERROR: ELF_PADDR_OFFSET set, VIRT_BASE unset
When compiling, I can see that VIRT_BASE is given as an argument to
xenelf in the makefile, like this:
XENELF='LOADER=generic,XEN_VER=xen-3.0,ELF_PADDR_OFFSET=0,\
VIRT_BASE='$KZERO',VIRT_ENTRY='$KTZERO',PAE='$PAE
Now I may be way off here, but I though that perhaps the tab character
in front of
VIRT_BASE here may cause it to not be recognized by xenelf. I joined
it into one line,
and I am rewarded with a different error message:
"xc_dom_alloc_segment: segment start isn't page aligned".
I really don't know if this is better or worse. I'm just poking around
at random trying
to figure all of this out :-)
