Flauta is the box hosting SDK users.
QEMU
The build server is running as a qemu guest. It is launched from the host thusly:
#!/bin/sh
/usr/local/bin/qemu-system-x86_64 \
-drive \
file=/kvm/flauta.qcow2,index=0,if=virtio,cache=writeback,boot=on \
-drive \
file=/kvm/www-freemoe.qcow2,index=1,if=virtio,cache=writeback \
-drive \
file=/kvm/scratchbox1.qcow2,index=2,if=virtio,cache=writeback \
-cpu qemu32 \
-m 2048 \
-vnc :5 \
-daemonize \
-enable-kvm \
-name flauta \
-net nic,vlan=0,model=virtio \
-net user,hostfwd=tcp:63.247.92.155:22-:22,hostfwd=tcp:63.247.92.155:80-:80 \
-smp 8 \
-runas jebba
- It is running the "current" QEMU git (d0be2513d5eefb47a83f9a303fe142dd8ef72848).
- Host kernel is custom 2.6.32.
- Guest is running Debian Lenny with stock Lenny kernel.
- The guest is running a custom 2.6.32 kernel now. A good sample .config optimized for qemu would be fantastic. Currently only seeing 883M (before seeing 2G) likely due to turning off 4G/4G which I turned off for speed per QEMU docs. Not sure if lots of memory will speed things up anyway--the filesystem will just get cached on the host.
- The guest panicked once (when building a kernel.deb for ARM running `dpkg-buildpackage -j8 -rfakeroot -b`...), hence the drive to run a more recent guest kernel.
