Re: [XenAccess-devel] process-list works with Vista VM (with a co uple tweaks)

[Matthew D. <ma...@at...>]

Crap.  Once again, I hit the wrong button and sent the email before I =
was
done.

I got the process-list example to work with a Vista (Ultimate) VM.  The
offsets had to be changed, of course:

#define ActiveProcessLinks_OFFSET    0xa0
#define UniqueProcessId_OFFSET       0x9c
#define ImageFileName_OFFSET         0x14c=20

Also, the page_offset value that I had to change to get the samples =
working
for XP (I changed from 0x80000000 to 0x7FC00000) had to be changed back =
to
0x80000000.

I say the program worked, but the last entry in the list is wrong:
   [1182726] =C8-=B5'=01

I haven't had a chance to look at it more closely yet.

The module-list sample doesn't work but I suppose it's because of a
hard-coded address that is different for Vista.

One thing to note:  By default Vista's kernel debugging is off.  You =
can
turn it on in one of two ways:
   1)  Right as Vista starts to boot, hold F8 and select "Debugging =
mode"
   2)  From an administrative command line enter: "bcdedit.exe -debug =
on"
and reboot.

*IMPORTANT:  Don't do number 2.  I can't get Vista to boot in debug =
mode in
a Xen virtual machine.  Option 2 above changes boot parameters (akin to
modifying boot.ini) and I couldn't find a way to undo it without =
booting
Vista (which I couldn't do.)  So until you know if it works, I =
recommend
option 1.  (I had to reinstall my Vista VM twice before I learned my
lesson.)

If you find something about this (booting Vista in debug mode with Xen)
please let me know.
