Re: [Xen-users] Patching libc for xen
I've grabbed a specs file from BLAG's repositary and have observed the
following after running `occur` within emacs. specs file for glibc.
26 lines matching "xen" in buffer glibc.spec.
8:%define xenarches i686 athlon
9:%ifarch %{xenarches}
10:%define buildxen 1
11:%define xenpackage 0
13:%define buildxen 0
14:%define xenpackage 0
137:%if %{xenpackage}
138:%package xen
139:Summary: The GNU libc libraries (optimized for running under Xen)
143:%description xen
145:perform as well under the Xen hypervisor. This package
provides alternative
146:library binaries that will be selected instead when running under Xen.
148:Install glibc-xen if you might run your system under the Xen hypervisor.
931:%if %{buildxen}
992:%if %{buildxen}
1216:%if %{xenpackage}
1293:%if %{buildxen}
1511:%if %{xenpackage}
1512:%post xen -p /sbin/ldconfig
1513:%postun xen -p /sbin/ldconfig
1525:%if %{buildxen} && !%{xenpackage}
1562:%if %{xenpackage}
1563:%files -f nosegneg.filelist xen
2230:- put xen libs into the glibc-2*.i686 package instead of a separate one
2250:- glibc-xen subpackage for i686
2455: - double buffer size in getXXbyYY or getXXent on ERANGE
This could mean that I'm good to go if i use the right switch(es)
during the build, right?

And you're getting the complaint that you need to disable TLS? Fedora has for
some time, included a Xen-aware libc build which should be selected
automatically when the system boots into a Xenified kernel. Maybe BLAG don't
include this...

Dave: Just a question. What use is a unicyle with no seat? And no pedals!
Mark: To answer a question with a question: What use is a skateboard?
Dave: Skateboards have wheels.
Mark: My wheel has a wheel!
