Even then, he only attempted to have the legacy Xen driver work on Solaris, never the QEMU driver. So basically if someone wants the QEMU driver to work on Solaris, they'll need to go through and figure out all the non-portable bits and send us patches to fix them. IIRC, this particular kernel-headers message is because we need to be able to create & pass TAP devices, and configure bridge devices. This will need to be ported to Solaris' interfaces since this stuff is non-portable Daniel -- |: http://berrange.com -o- http://www.flickr.com/photos/dberrange/ :| |: http://libvirt.org -o- http://virt-manager.org :| |: http://autobuild.org -o- http://search.cpan.org/~danberr/ :| |: http://entangle-photo.org -o- http://live.gnome.org/gtk-vnc :| -- libvir-list mailing list libvir-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/libvir-list
