I have had Xen 4.2-Unstable compiled a week or so ago and it all went fine and running, but i forget what revision i compiled now. When i ran the *xl create /etc/xen/win7.cfg* to create a VM, i got an error about libxl and running "*sudo xl list*" shows the newly created VM, SO i just ignored that error for now. That error message was: *libxl: error: libxl.c:3117:libxl_sched_credit_domain_set: Cpu weight out of range, valid values are within range from 1 to 65535 * ---------------------------------- ---------------------------------- ---------------------------------- SO, I noticed on the xen-unstable.hg tree that there have been a lot of updates to the libxl lately SO just out of curiosity, i wanted to get the latest revision 25374 of xen-unstable as of today 5/20/2012, and compile it. BUT, i cannot compile Xen anymore as the compile stops with warnings and error messages. Upon scrolling up in the terminal window, i noticed these warning or error messages: *node-select.c:57:6: warning: function declaration isn't a prototype [-Wstrict-prototypes] node-select.c: In function 'vchan_wr': node-select.c:60:2: warning: ISO C90 forbids mixed declarations and code [-Wdeclaration-after-statement] node-select.c: At top level: node-select.c:71:6: warning: function declaration isn't a prototype [-Wstrict-prototypes] node-select.c: In function 'stdout_wr': node-select.c:74:2: warning: ISO C90 forbids mixed declarations and code [-Wdeclaration-after-statement]* *The error log from compiling the libSDL test is: /tmp/qemu-conf--3330-.c:1:17: fatal error: SDL.h: No such file or directory* *../xen-unstable.hg/tools/qemu-xen-traditional-dir/hw/eepro100.c:1232:5: warning: 'val' may be used uninitialized in this function [-Wuninitialized]* _I also get like a dozen warnings about this:_ *../tools/xenstore/compat/xs.h:1:2: warning: #warning xs.h is deprecated use xenstore.h instead [-Wcpp]* _AND finally the compilations stops with these messages:_ *libxl.c: In function 'libxl_primary_console_exec': libxl.c:1233:9: error: case value '4294967295' not in enumerated type 'libxl_domain_type' [-Werror=switch] cc1: all warnings being treated as errors make[3]: *** [libxl.o] Error 1 make[3]: *** Waiting for unfinished jobs.... make[3]: Leaving directory `/home/xyber/Desktop/KERNEL_BUILD/Xen/xen-unstable.hg/tools/libxl' make[2]: *** [subdir-install-libxl] Error 2 make[2]: Leaving directory `/home/xyber/Desktop/KERNEL_BUILD/Xen/xen-unstable.hg/tools' make[1]: *** [subdirs-install] Error 2 make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/xyber/Desktop/KERNEL_BUILD/Xen/xen-unstable.hg/tools' make: *** [install-tools] Error 2* ---------------------------------- ---------------------------------- ---------------------------------- All of these messages appear at different times during compile, but these where the ones i found thru a quick glance at the terminal window output. I have also tried to compile the latest Xen 4.2 THREE different times now, and in all cases it seems to end with a similar error about *libxl.c*. Each time i tried to compile, i booted into non-Xen kernel, ran "*sudo make uninstall*" of my current Xen 4.2-unstable and ran "*sudo dpkg -r xen-upstream-4.2-unstable*", AND twice now i cloned a fresh copy of the xen-unstable.hg before compile.
