[Xen-devel] [PATCH] RHEL3 2.4 domU kernel has load average of 2
The backport of the xenbus code for the 2.4 kernel changed wait_event_interruptible() into wait_event() into a couple of places it looks to deal with the fact that signals weren''t being blocked. This results in an idle domU showing a load-average of 2, which was messing up some work-management tools. The attached patch blocks all signals for the xenbus and xenwatch daemons, instead.
