SubjectRe: [Xen-devel] Re: [PATCH 2/9] xen: hook io_apic read/write operations
From
i am currently studying in m.a.m college of engg in trichy sir. i have
used in xen 3.3.1 source code using in final year project. The
xen3.3.1 learn in readme file and make file compiling there are
following errors are identified.
select-repository: Searching `.:..' for linux-2.6.18-xen.hg
select-repository: Ignoring `.'
Unable to determine path to Linux source tree.
Falling back to linux-2.6.18-xen Mercurial repository.
Cloning http://xenbits.xensource.com/linux-2.6.18-xen.hg to linux-2.6.18-xen.hg.
