Hi everybody,

Allow me to remind you that Xen Test Day is today, so come and join us
on #xentest on freenode!

We will be testing Xen 4.3 RC2 (released yesterday). For more info, see:
 - on Xen Test Days:
    http://wiki.xen.org/wiki/Xen_Test_Days

 - on getting and testing RC2:
    http://wiki.xen.org/wiki/Xen_4.3_RC2_test_instructions

 - for generic testing information:
    http://wiki.xen.org/wiki/Testing_Xen

If you're using Fedora 18, there is even an RPM available already
(thanks Michael Young for the great work!) here:
 http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=5407161

See you all on freenode, channel #xentest.

Regards
Lars

On opensSuSE-12.3 I have another linking problem:

  ...
  AR    i386-dm/libqemu.a
  LINK  i386-dm/qemu-dm
/usr/lib64/gcc/x86_64-suse-linux/4.7/../../../../x86_64-suse-linux/bin/ld: vl.o: undefined reference to symbol 'timer_settime@@GLIBC_2.3.3'

And the linker is kindly enough to give the correct hint ;-)
After adding "LDFLAGS += -lrt" all went fine.

# man timer_settime
tells among others: Link with -lrt.

Maybe I should mention that openSuSE-12.3 uses libc-2.17 and
# ld -v
GNU ld (GNU Binutils; openSUSE 12.3) 2.23.1
Thanks.

I think 70992304dc8c5fc67d876e0f8e3dfaa82be955a1 in the qemu-xen-trad
tree should fix this. But it didn't make it into the 4.3.0-rc2 tag.

Where can I find this tree?

It's auto cloned into tools/qemu-xen-traditional from

I saw that qemu upstrem tag is not updated (on Config.mk 
QEMU_UPSTREAM_REVISION ?= qemu-xen-4.3.0-rc1) but on git there are new 
patches, why?

I honestly don't know, although I remember Ian Jackson and Stefano
mentioning it yesterday... Stefano, Ian, any clues?

On IRC yesterday I wrote:

11:57 <Diziet> stefano_s: You have updated the qemu-upstream-unstable
               tree but the fixed version in xen.git#staging's
               Config.mk remains at qemu-xen-4.3.0-rc1.
11:58 <Diziet> I'm going to make the RC tarball with what you get if
               you check out xen.git master, not what you get if you
               were to fiddle with Config.mk (or pull by hand or
               whatever).

I think we should update Config.mk - indeed, we should probably have
done so before.  But that's subject to prompting from Stefano (who
knows when the qemu upstream tree has been updated) at and the moment
confirmation George as release manager.

Ian.

Presumably we are going to put real commit numbers here instead of tag
names, otherwise we need to have a test pass in the midst of the release
process to propagate the change of tag name. We can still tag the qemu
repo post-hoc as we do for xen.git.

For the RCs I've not being doing anything to Config.mk.

For the release we have other practical options.  We can leave in the
commit number.  We could decree in advance what versions of qemu are
going to be in 4.3.0 release and tag them well in advance.  We could
force push a change to Config.mk (which would be possible because
presumably no other changes are going to be made right before a
release so at that time staging and master will be identical).

Ian.
