Ok Fabio, thanks to your configure, some bits of hacking the install
part and lots of advises/support/encouragements ;) from Mark Pryor I
ended up
installing 4.5RC4 with QXL support on Deb8 unstable.
So now what do you want me to test fabio?
I have win7 x64 / win 2k8R2 vms in test mode ready to install drvers.
the numerous troubles I went through are related in the IRCcopy attached.
I actually couldn't build rombios and used seabios provided by the
system -like you-
I should try to compile/find latest qxl now.
rombios is used only by qemu traditional that is very old, without spice
support and hvm domUs have lower performance with it.
qxl drivers in latest spice guest tools are signed and not require
windows testsigning mode, same for james haper xen gplpv.
If you want test new winpv drivers instead you need it.
For me qxl is working good on w7 domUs except after save/restore when
"freeze" 2-3 minutes on screen resolution change and I not found the
exact problem for now.
I also not found how to have qxl working in linux domUs, on latest test
xorg crash on start with qxl driver installed.
Probably other changes are needed in hvmloader and/or xen hypervisor
and/or qxl driver.
Any help testing it is appreciated.
See you in 2K15.

ok, I'm trying to patch the files with yours,
I need to do it manually right?
git apply is not working here.
If the patch need a "refresh" the conflict should be solved manually.
Taking the patch updated from here probably it can be applied to
latest 4.5-rc:

There is an error in pageqs describing how to compile from
sources as in 4.5
cat .config
PYTHON_PREFIX_ARG=--install-layout=deb
is in fact in .INSTALL
If also you use debian you can use make debball that is better for
install/remove easy and fast test build.
And for example I use this configure options with xen 4.5:
./configure --prefix=/usr --disable-blktap1
--disable-qemu-traditional --disable-rombios
--with-system-seabios=/usr/share/seabios/bios-256k.bin
--with-extra-qemuu-configure-args="--enable-spice
--enable-usb-redir" --disable-blktap2
I use wheezy building updated packages from sid: seabios 1.7.5-1,
spice 0.12.5-1, spice-protocol 0.12.7-1 and usbredir 0.7-1.
If you use jessie instead you have all packages updated.
About python I'm using this workaround (before execute configure)
even if probably is not the best:
Config.mk
-PYTHON_PREFIX_ARG ?=--prefix="$(PREFIX)"
+PYTHON_PREFIX_ARG ?=

well figured out it is because you have to "enforce"
locale: export LC_ALL=en_US.utf-8 if keyboard mapping is
else

Hello Fabio,
Sure thing I will help debug the win7 and the
win8 versions.
Where to start?
I'll try to see if I can patch with patch from
https://github.com/Fantu/Xen/commit/fadecf8d6ee0e8c7e421fafba67aa11879e8b8fe
and if not will post result.
best regards,

I tried to install Qxl drivers under
win7/win 2k8/win8.1 all x64 versions,
without any luck.
admin message is as follow:
Driver Management concluded the process to
install driver FileRepository\qxl.inf_amd64_

Instance ID
PCI\VEN_1013&DEV_00B8&SUBSYS_11001AF4&REV_00\3&267A616A&1&28
with the following status: 0xe000022d.
Does
http://lists.xen.org/archives/html/xen-devel/2014-05/msg03214.html
can it be installed on my xen stack?
Yes but probably require a small refresh, I
always posted the patch based on updated
xen-unstable.
Here qxl patch refreshed for xen 4.5 if needed:
https://github.com/Fantu/Xen/commit/fadecf8d6ee0e8c7e421fafba67aa11879e8b8fe
Here the latest spice guest tools for windows
with qxl driver included:
http://www.spice-space.org/download/binaries/spice-guest-tools/spice-guest-tools-0.74.exe
Windows >=8 and similar require a new qxl
drivers, there are a beta build but latest
tried some months ago have serious bug and I
not found recent build full working on windows 8.
On xen windows 7 domUs qxl works good except
a problem after save/restore and on linux
domUs is not working, for now I not found
exactly cause and solution.
On mailing list up to 2 years ago you can
find many my mails about.
Any help to test it is appreciated.
Sorry for my bad english.
Also, can I get invited at xendevel irc ?
regards
Greg
