No, I don't think it's the same, i have can't get rootid in root.log, but i think it's ignorable, the real error it's in the build.log and it's related to Omake.

File "quicktest.ml", line 855, characters 1-30:

set_good_ciphersuites is one of a pair of functions added to the Stunnel module recently:
xapi-project/xen-api-libs-transitional#23
So Error: Unbound value Stunnel.set_good_ciphersuites shows that an older Stunnel is still being used.

Resolved making Mock build the latest commit of xen-api-libs-transitional, now it gives this error:

This failure is because xen-api-libs-transitional's latest release depends on changes in CPU feature handling which are not yet in upstream Xen. We don't currently have a good strategy for handling features which have been added to Xapi but have not yet made it upstream.

Why are you trying to build Xapi? If you eventually plan to install the packages on a Xenserver-based system, take a look at http://xenserver.org/blog.html?view=entry&id=109. The approach described there does use the XenServer Xen patch queue, so the CPU feature handling code will be present.

Why are you trying to build Xapi?

I'm trying to build images for arm sbc's using centos, xen and xapi - there are a couple of ubuntu based images, which contain xapi - http://blobs.openmirage.org . The version of xapi used in the images is pretty old. I'm just about to spend some time on a Pine64 and I'd love to get xapi running on that too.

Thanks for the pointer to Jon's blog - I'll give it a try sometime next week and see if I can get xapi up and running on a cubietruck.

I'm trying to build xapi in a CentOS environment just to know if it's possible to have it run in Xen-4.4 and eventually in Xen-4.6, but not with XenServer.
