This page is about manually verifying that Xen on ARM works correctly on your ARM or ARM64 platforms. It is recommended to follow these steps during Xen test days and to verify Xen RCs (Release Candidates) on as many different platforms as possible.

  • Install Xen on ARM on your system. A lot of information about how to build Xen from source and install it on your ARM platform is available here.
  • Boot the system. Check the console logs and verify that Xen and Dom0 booted successfully. Connect to the console and verify that the system is usable (Is it responsive? Can you issue commands in Dom0?).
  • Test hypervisor functionalities: clone raisin on the platform and run ./raise test
