Xen All current work is now merged into the current development branch git:///xen.git. Normally the regular device tree used when booting natively on the platform should be used. The host platform must be described in a DTB binary passed to Xen at boot time. Device Tree A device tree in the flat device tree format (.dtb). Firmware Xen requires certain functionality from the system firmware.

Requirements ARM Hardware or Software Model See above for details of the hardware and models which are supported. By doing so you will help others and yourself.ĪRM Cortex A7/A15 Real-time System Model (FVP)ĪRM Cortex A53/A57 Real-time System ModelĮarly work was also done to support the Google Chromebook, however this is no longer continued since it is not a good development platform. Feel free to add any test results to the table.

The Xen ARM Manual Smoke Test/Results contains a list of people who have specific boards and also lists when these boards have been last tested. The good news, is that from experience the vast majority of board specific issues will occur during boot and thus a a simple Xen ARM Manual Smoke Test is usually sufficient to identify such issues. As such, we will be relying on manual testing during Xen Project Test Days to verify which ARM hardware works and which doesn't. The project's CI loop can only test a small subset of these, as we cannot afford to buy and test against all possible boards. There are a lot of different ARM boards and servers with many different IP blocks available. For patches please see Submitting Xen Patches. Please see the list info page for subscription information and the archives. Please email xen-devel with comments, questions and patches. The guest (including dom0) visible ABI exposed by the hypervisor has been declared stable as of the 4.4 release and will now be maintained in a backwards compatible manner. You may also want to read our whitepaper that explains the basic architecture and terminology of Xen on ARM. See below for information on the hardware and models. If you are interested in the Xen on ARM architecture and how it compares to Xen on x86, read the Xen on ARM whitepaper.īoth the 32-bit (arm32) and the 64-bit (arm64) ports of Xen boot dom0 and unprivileged guests can be created and destroyed using xl.
