|Desc=[[Xen ARM with Virtualization Extensions|Xen on ARM]] has reached the point where it is becoming reasonable to port it to a wider set of hardware. The idea of this session would be to take advantage of the presence of the Xen on ARM developers to port Xen to your hardware. In order to participate you will need: |
|||
* Access to a hardware platform which supports the ARM virtualisation extension which you wish to port Xen to. |
|||
** Could be local access if hardware is portable, otherwise remote serial and power control will be required |
|||
** Software models could also be considered |
|||
* An existing functioning port of Linux >3.8 to the platform |
|||
* Access to datasheets and/or extensive knowledge of the hardware platform |
|||
|Outcomes=Xen running on some new ARM platforms |
|||
|GSoC={{N/A}} |
|||
|Difficulty=Not too hard if you are familiar with the hardware and have Linux running |
|||
|Skills=Mostly C |

|Project=Update toolstacks to make use of libxl and/or xl |

|Date=12/03/2013 |
|||
|Contact=Ian Campbell |
|||
|Desc=There are various higher-level toolstacks which make direct use of the xend interfaces (either through xm, sxp or XML/RPC). This project offers an opportunity to collaborate on porting toolstacks to use xl or other modern toolstack interfaces. |
|||
This project also covers those who wish to use libxl directly to implement their own toolstack or to port an existing toolstack from other lower-level interface (such as libxc) to libxl. |
|||
It is expected that participants will be familiar with the internals of the toolstack the wish to port to libxl/xl |
|||
|Outcomes=More toolstacks using xl or libxl. |
|||
|GSoC={{N/A}} |
|||
|Difficulty=Depends on the complexity of the toolstack which needs modifying |
|||
|Skills=Some C, perhaps knowledge of the C bindings for the language which the toolstack uses. |
