We (Microsoft) ar= e actively working on these drivers and the intent is to get them integrate= d in to the kernel within the next month or so. There are some issues we ar= e trying to address: > > a) Witness panic during boot time due to a specific memory allocation. > b) Bypass usage of disk labels to ensure that devices do not get reordere= d under FreeBSD. > c) Locks up on 32 bit builds. > d) Lack of KVP support for BSD drivers > > We are working hard every day to finish these items. > > Even though an official announcement has not gone out, I would highly enc= ourage you to start testing the drivers. As they are in project branch now = they should be easy to compile. The only requirement is to set up disk labe= ls before rebooting a kernel that includes the Hyper-V drivers otherwise th= e system will not boot up. > > Please let me know if you have more questions or have feedback. > > Thanks again for your interest. > Abhishek > ________________________________________ > From: Peter Grehan > Sent: Friday, August 16, 2013 11:30 AM > To: Abhishek Gupta (LIS) > Subject: Fwd: Hyper-V driver development status > > Want to reply to this ? > > > -------- Original Message -------- > Subject: Hyper-V driver development status > Date: Fri, 16 Aug 2013 17:00:57 +0400 > From: Pavel Timofeev > To: freebsd-virtualization@freebsd.org > > Hi all! > I'd like to know what's happening with hyper-v driver development in > FreeBSD. > I know about svn branch but there is no active progress in there. > What's the roadmap?
