Need help : 10.2 + Xen dom0 support

[Shree Kantha]

Thanks a lot Roger for this information.

I am able to progress with this. I took below commits of you to stable 10.2:

   - rS280954: multiboot: fix error codes
   <https://reviews.freebsd.org/rS280954>
   - Diffusion Commit
   - rS280953: multiboot: zero mod list array
   <https://reviews.freebsd.org/rS280953>
   - rS277215: loader: implement multiboot support for Xen Dom0
   <https://reviews.freebsd.org/rS277215>

With this, i build kernel, and followed steps mentioned in :
http://wiki.xen.org/wiki/FreeBSD_Dom0.

when my system reboots, I see below error:


"ERROR: Not a Xen-ELF image: No ELF notes or '__xen_ost' section found

***********************************************************************************

Panic on CPU 0:

Could not set up DOM0 guest OS
***********************************************************************************
Can you please tell me if I am missng anything here. Well, I took the above
mentioned fix to correct the multiboot support.If there are any other
patches to be used, plz let me know.

thanks a ton,
Shree
