How come Linux kernel 3.10 does not have Xen configuration options any more?

Hi,

I have just downloaded Linux kernel 3.10. I am shocked to find out that
Linux kernel 3.10 does not have Xen configuration options any more.
Where did they all go?

Most of the following Linux kernel configuration options are not
available any more:

3 Configuring the kernel for dom0 support
NOTE: Xen dom0 support depends on ACPI support. Make sure you enable
ACPI support or you
won't see Dom0 options at all.
In addition to the config options above you also need to enable:
CONFIG_X86_IO_APIC=y
CONFIG_ACPI=y
CONFIG_ACPI_PROCFS=y (optional)
CONFIG_XEN_DOM0=y
CONFIG_PCI_XEN=y
CONFIG_XEN_DEV_EVTCHN=y
CONFIG_XENFS=y
CONFIG_XEN_COMPAT_XENFS=y
CONFIG_XEN_SYS_HYPERVISOR=y
CONFIG_XEN_GNTDEV=y
CONFIG_XEN_BACKEND=y
CONFIG_XEN_NETDEV_BACKEND=m
CONFIG_XEN_BLKDEV_BACKEND=m
CONFIG_XEN_PCIDEV_BACKEND=y
CONFIG_XEN_PRIVILEGED_GUEST=y
CONFIG_XEN_BALLOON=y
CONFIG_XEN_SCRUB_PAGES=y
CONFIG_XEN_DEV_EVTCHN=y
CONFIG_XEN_GNTDEV=y

4 Configuring the kernel for domU support
1. If building 32 bit kernel make sure you have CONFIG_X86_PAE enabled
(which is set by
selecting CONFIG_HIGHMEM64G)
non-PAE mode doesn't work in 2.6.25, and has been dropped altogether
from 2.6.26 and newer
kernel versions.
2. Enable these core options (Processor type and features|
Paravirtualized guest support]
CONFIG_PARAVIRT=y
CONFIG_XEN=y
CONFIG_PARAVIRT_GUEST=y
CONFIG_PARAVIRT_SPINLOCKS=y
3. And Xen pv console device support (Device Drivers|Character devices
CONFIG_HVC_DRIVER=y
CONFIG_HVC_XEN=y
4. And Xen disk and network support (Device Drivers|Block devices and
Device Drivers|Network
device support)
CONFIG_XEN_FBDEV_FRONTEND=y
CONFIG_XEN_BLKDEV_FRONTEND=y
CONFIG_XEN_NETDEV_FRONTEND=y
5. And the rest (Device Drivers|Xen driver support)
CONFIG_XEN_PCIDEV_FRONTEND=y
CONFIG_INPUT_XEN_KBDDEV_FRONTEND=y
CONFIG_XEN_FBDEV_FRONTEND=y
CONFIG_XEN_XENBUS_FRONTEND=y
CONFIG_XEN_SAVE_RESTORE=y
CONFIG_XEN_GRANT_DEV_ALLOC=m
6. And for tmem support:
CONFIG_XEN_TMEM=y
CONFIG_CLEANCACHE=y
CONFIG_FRONTSWAP=y
CONFIG_XEN_SELFBALLOONING=y

Please advise.

Thank you very much.

They haven't gone anywhere, they are still there, but they seem to be
behind a new CONFIG_HYPERVISOR_GUEST option.

Dear Ian,

But "grep -i xen .config" shows up nothing. Could you point me to the
new wiki for all the xen configuration options?

Thank you very much.

There is http://wiki.xen.org/wiki/Mainline_Linux_Kernel_Configs
I am not sure how up-to-date it is though: it was last edited a few
months ago

Options do not appear unless their preconditions have been satisfied.

> Could you point me to the new wiki for all the xen configuration options?

As I've already said, the new option is CONFIG_HYPERVISOR_GUEST.

Dear Ian,

Pardon me for being stupid. But after setting CONFIG_HYPERVISOR_GUEST=y
using the nano editor and running "make oldconfig", I still don't see
the Xen configuration options.

use "make menuconfig" press the "/" key and then type "XEN". This will
then display the prerequisites for the Xen config symbol and their
states, so you can find the one which is missing.

You need to enable CONFIG_HYPERVISOR_GUEST.

Dear Ian,

If I want to edit .config by using the nano editor, what can I do? If I
edit .config by hand, I still don't see the xen configuration options.

Please advise.

Re: How come Linux kernel 3.10 does not have Xen configuration options any more? [In reply to]

I actually have also had problems with 3.10. I tried menuconfig and found
the hypervisor guest option, but turning it on did not reveal the xen menu
on my system. I went with 3.9.9 instead as a result.

One alternative I have not tried is adding the raw flags to a .config and
using oldconfig or menuconfig to auto-correct and load them in.

Do as I advised, which does not involve using nano or editing the config
by hand.

Dear Konrad,

Is it Linux guest support? Please see http://i.imgur.com/Pjn3eGa.png

Even though I have enabled CONFIG_HYPERVISOR_GUEST=y, I still don't see
the xen configuration options.

Please don't top post.
Did you enter in the option? You should see 'Xen guest support' once you enter
in the 'Linux guest support'.

Dear Konrad,

I don't see 'Xen guest support'. May I know where is it located?

I thought enabling CONFIG_HYPERVISOR_GUEST=y should turn on all Xen
configuration options? Or are there any more pre-requisites? I still
prefer editing .config manually rather than using 'make menuconfig'
because I have such a hard time searching for the Xen configuration options.

Please advise.

Thank you.

Dear Ian,

Even after using "make menuconfig", I still cannot find the Xen
configuration options on the first page of the "/" search results.

Please advise.

'Linux guest support' is a menu (indicated by the "--->"). Press Enter
to go into the menu and then turn on "Enable paravirtualisation code"
and Xen should appear, assuming the other prerequisites (i.e. PAE on
32-bit) are met.

Thanks! I've got Linux kernel 3.10.0 working. Please see attached

I try to copy a 3.9.9 config file, do a menuconfig and compile as usual
and it works (I am using that system to write that mail).

All, this looks like something that should be documented on the wiki.
Otherwise the question will keep coming up

Dear Lars,

I have this issue documented in my pdf file, but unfortunately I can't
upload my pdf file to the xen wiki due to a permission problem. Could
you allow me to upload pdf file in the xen wiki?

Hi. You probably are not in the editors group, which we had to create
due to sustained spam attacks on the wiki. You need to fill out
http://xenproject.org/component/content/article/100-misc/145-request-to-be-made-a-wiki-editor.html
(which is linked to from the wiki main page).
Lars
