Hi Kir

I have a question about ploop and vzctl.

The question is regarding architecture support in the kernel. What architectures have working ploop and/or vzctl support in the openvz patched kernel?

Currently we only build kernels for i386 and x86_64, but ploop code should not be arch-specific (unlike, say, checkpoint/restore stuff), so it makes sense to try building it for other arches as well. We have plans to merge the ploop kernel code upstream (in one way or another).


vzctl is currently built for: i386, amd64, ia64, powerpc and sparc
ploop is possible to build for i386 and amd64.

I raise this question as there is a problem to have a build dependency on ploop if ploop can not be built for the same (or more) architectures as vzctl.

Fixed in git:
http://git-ovzcore.sw.ru/?p=ploop;a=commit;h=282a186b7

Although I don't currently have a way to test it.


Cheers

// Ola

        Builds of ploop on Linux architectures other than amd64 and
        i386 have
        been failing:

          ploop.h:21:2: error: #error "No fallocate syscall known for
        this arch"
          ploop.h:31:2: error: #error "No syncfs syscall known for
        this arch"

        Please try having ploop.h #include <sys/syscall.h> to pick up
        system
        definitions rather than relying on its fallbacks, defined only
        for x86.

        Thanks!
