Bug 282803 – xen-tools-3.4.1 does not build qemu-dm (tools/ioemu-qemu-xen) USE=-hvm

• Product: Gentoo Linux
• Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME

[Description Spooky Ghost 2009-08-26 14:05:23 UTC]

In order to create a framebuffer on a PV domU qemu-dm is required.  However I do not have USE=hvm as my hardware is not capable, also I do not have USE=multilib.  I have manually compiled tools/ioemu-qemu-xen from the xen-3.4.1 release and installed it providing the necessary capabilities to my PV domU.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. USE="-hvm -multilib" emerge =app-emulation/xen-tools-3.4.1
2.
3.

Actual Results:  
tools/ioemu-qemu-xen (qemu-dm) is not built/installed by the ebuild

Expected Results:  
tools/ioemu-qemu-xen should be built and installed

Checking the ebuild I find this block:

        # Disable hvm support on systems that don't support x86_32 binaries.
        if ! use hvm; then
                chmod 644 tools/check/check_x11_devel
                sed -i -e '/^CONFIG_IOEMU := y$/d' "${S}"/config/*.mk
                sed -i -e '/SUBDIRS-$(CONFIG_X86) += firmware/d' "${S}"/tools/Makefile
        fi

I think the sed expression should be applied to CONFIG_HVM not CONFIG_IOEMU.

The following patch solves the bug for me:
