The Xen hypervisor, a powerful open source industry standard for
virtualization, offers a powerful, efficient, and secure feature
set for virtualization of x86, x86_64, IA64, ARM, and other CPU
architectures. It supports a wide range of guest operating systems
including Windows, Linux, Solaris, and various versions of the BSD
operating systems.
This script has a few optional dependencies:
mbootpack - creates LILO compatible kernel images
libssh - mostly used by libvirt, enable with USE_LIBSSH=yes
(previously known as USE_LIBSSH2)
ocaml-findlib - autodetected, builds oxenstored binary
spice - enable with USE_SPICE=yes
Linking with the stock libraries:
gtk - enable with USE_GTK=yes
audio - enable with USE_AUDIO=yes
(or a comma-delimited list: oss alsa sdl pa)
Reading material:
README.SLACKWARE - explains Xen daemons and system startup
README.dom0 - explains setting up privileged Xen domain (host)
README.domU - talks about unprivileged Xen domain (guest)
README.openvswitch-extended - additional Open vSwitch use case
README.xsa - building Xen with latest security fixes
Toggle additional features:
BUILD_STUBDOM=yes - enables lightweight service/driver domains
INSTALL_OPENVSWITCH_EXTENDED=yes - systemwide install
WITH_OVMF=no - disables guest domain EFI/UEFI support
