Xen devel - Sep 2005 - changset 7048:c89485e939cc, Non-privileged attempt to map I/O, bridge odditiies, debug console

With changset 7048:c89485e939cc I have two FC4 domU,s that generates
these messages on startup.

(XEN) DOM11: (file=mm.c, line=461) Non-privileged attempt to map I/O
space 00000000
(XEN) DOM11: (file=mm.c, line=461) Non-privileged attempt to map I/O
space 00000000

Happens every time I start an FC4 domU, not seeing this with Centos 4.1,
debian 3.1 or gentoo-2005 domu''s.

Also seeing some strange behavior with the bridge setups as well.
Had one instance where network layer was toast, and llc was half
working. Also the bridge interfaces are not being cleaned up, if a domU
fails (sporadically seeing this) and I issue an xm destroy the bridge
interface for that domU is left behind.

My xen console also vanished, when I first connected I hit "h" and
output was humming along, then it just stopped. Still not sure if I am
using it properly. Is their some disable key stroke?


Also saw the OUCH timer gripe, but only a few entries.

Question?
Is it better for me to reboot and startup clean after I see this types
of issues, or keep things running and test more.

Regards,
Ted

How recently has this started happening? A few of these printing out is 
probably harmless.

The xen debug key ''h''? Input gets automatically redirected to
domain0
when it boots. You can switch back to Xen by hitting CTRL-a three 
times.

I don;t know much about the scheduler. It sounds like it gets easily 
upset. Someone probably needs to spend some time debugging it and 
getting to understand it.

You are probably okay ignoring most of these. When domain don''t die 
properly I sometimes find that new domains don;t work properly either 
but ymmv.

Just with my latest spin of this changeset.

Great good to know.

Also, domU''s are starting up much faster for me
:-).
