Hi Boris et al,

I can confirm this problem. Same setup ( KV 2.6.32.15, Ubuntu 10.04 server). evtchn is built-in, not a module. I manually tried to create the device node (mknod /dev/xen/evtchn c 10 62) but xenstored didn't like that and after the failed start of xenstored /dev/xen/evtchn disappeard again. Is there a quick fix or should I downgrade?

cheers
 Paul

What distro?  Perhaps there's something wrong with the udev setup?

      You should be able to see if its present in the kernel by looking at
      /proc/misc, but something still needs to create the /dev nodes.
      Usually
      this is udev, but libxc goes to special lengths to get this wrong, and
      will end up deleting the perfectly good nodes unless you update it.

      Keir, have the libxc changes been backported to all the release trees?
