Bug#1050030: fixing regression: ovmf package update from Debian bookworm breaks Xen HVM boot

2025-06-07 Thread Patrick Plenefisch
I have pushed a new branch based on 202502 at my repo debian/xen-last here: https://github.com/byteit101/edk2-debian. Note that c2c08abb36224f5a6700f12e6a16c07ad33a3fa9 is the real change. I also added on top c7b34aae3d3d873af6d57ff1d952021331c3450e which is just a "build faster" commit for testing

Bug#1106742: linux: Please build with CONFIG_USB_XEN_HCD=m to enable Xen USB

2025-05-28 Thread Patrick Plenefisch
Source: linux Severity: wishlist X-Debbugs-Cc: simonp...@gmail.com Using Debian as a Xen guest with USB support is hampered by the fact that USB support is not enabled in the Debian kernel build. This requires manually rebuilding the modules. Setting CONFIG_USB_XEN_HCD=m would build drivers/usb/ho

2025-05-08 Thread Patrick Plenefisch
I can confirm that the 2020 package from Debian 11 works with Xen, and that the 2022 package from Debian 12 is broken in interesting ways (I could start a <4G VM, but >= 4G vms instantly crashed). I tried to update the packaging to edk2 202502, but I ran into a bug in OVMF: https://github.com/tian

2024-02-15 Thread Patrick Plenefisch
This is still an issue in debian 12 and still filling up my logs, making journalctl somewhat hard to use. Note that a workaround is to run it manually and redirect stderr to /dev/null: edit /usr/share/applications/vinagre.desktop and change this line: Exec=vinagre %U 2>/dev/null

Oh, the debbugs kernel log above is useless, so here is a better one, plus a list of all of my reboots in the past few years. Note the occurrence of multiple reboots on each day only a few minutes apart. All eventually got USB3 to work, except for the most recent sequence (March 4/5.10.0-11/Debian
