\uD83D\uDDE3 Discussion
AJB: mentioned the xen-vhost-master PoC is working
SS: is it using the xen libs?
VK: yes at the moment, slowly migrating to rust
SS: did you need Epams non-upstream patches?
VK: yes
SS: does this integrate with xl create?
VK: not yet, start manually
should send out an email tomorrow with details of the repos
SS: a bit of automation is missing for the disk
AJB:
sprint planning
SS: we are going to work on qemu (IOREQ Xen PV on ARM)
AJB: the kvm/tcg patches are the disaggregation patches
SS: for speed stick to current x86 xen model
SS: introduce Vikram
AB: I have a question about Xen on Cortex-R52
SS: we want to port to R52, static partitioning, dom0less
SS: linux not really required
AB: don’t want to encourage mmu-less linux, please let it die in peace
SS: we not planning on it, maybe useful for testing but unlikely for production
AJB: is there interest in expanding Cortex-R profile support for QEMU
SS: yes, there is interest, talk to Edgar
AB: been looking at expanding “virt” support for other CPU types
SS: that would be interesting
could have virt devices on “random” CPU types
AJB: maybe a virtualised test machine for multiple CPU types?
AB: kernel support for “Goldfish” machine which does that
AJB: is it documented
AB: a bit
AB: mostly virt with minimal HW where it makes sense
