Xen is a hypervisor and associated tools running on Linux available as a package in distributions such as Ubuntu and Fedora. It is also modified and included in the rpm-based Xen Cloud Platform distribution and Citrix XenServer. This layer currently includes recipes and recipe modifications for building xen, libvirt, and a minimal xen image that may be used for launching virtual machines via the xl command line interface. This currently targets the x86 Xen host (OE target) architecture; development has been done entirely on x86_64. I'm open to receiving feedback, patches and suggestions. Also, I'm curious if this layer may be published to the OpenEmbedded layer index and by what process that should be achieved? meta-xen|Xen related software||git://git.se-eng.com/meta-xen.git| http://git.se-eng.com/gitweb/?p=meta-xen.git;a=summary| Thanks, Ray Raymond Danks Sage Electronic Engineering, LLC http://www.se-eng.com
