RE: xen and oprofile - please help

[Ranganathan, S. <sho...@in...>]

Thanks a lot to Padma, William and Ray for answering my questions..
Thanks Padma for the phone call..
But my peeves are not over yet..

I had to move on to FC5 P4 machine as my P6 had system issues.
I have a xen0 and xenu(FC5 again) setup.

Problem:
After I untar the xen-unstable-src.tar, I was told to do a "make
menuconfig"
I do not have linux-2.6.X.x-xen directory to enable "Instrumentation
layer support". I did have in my previous setup not sure how..

Now I cannot invoke "make menuconfig"...

How do I get linux-2.6.X.X-xen in xen-unstable/ directory?

Any help is greatly appreciated.

Shobha

Hi,

I am newbie to Linux hence please bear with my startup questions.
I have setup Xen0 and Xenu in FC5 system in P6 processor.

I am looking to see how I can run xenoprof in Xen.
I want to lay my hands on oprofile sources and see how the VMM layer is
implemented for Xen in oprofile.

I tried the cvs repository for xenoprof but get booted out on
connections with anonymous user in cvs .

I am looking to understand the performance event interface that XEN VMM
provides for oprofile..
