Hi all I''m hacking on a netback trying to identify whether TLB flushes causes heavy performance penalty on Tx path. The hack is quite nasty (you would not want to know, trust me). Basically what is doesn''t is, 1) alter network protocol to pass along mfns instead of grant references, 2) when the backend sees a new mfn, map it RO and cache it in its own address space. With this

We''ve been hitting the following issue on a variety of hosts and recent Xen/dom0 version combinations. Here''s an excerpt from our latest: Xen: 4.1.4 (xenbits @ 23432) Dom0: 3.7.1-x86_64 BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at 000000000000001c IP: [<ffffffff8141a301>] evtchn_from_irq+0x11/0x40 PGD 0 Oops: 0000 [#1] SMP Modules linked in: ebt_comment

This patch series introduces the shared ring used by the front-end to pass request descriptors to tapdisk, as well as responses from tapdisk to the front-end. Requests from this ring end up in tapdisk''s standard request queue. When the tapback daemon detects that the front-end tries to connect to the back-end, it spawns a tapdisk and tells it to connect to the shared ring. The shared

This patch series implements the Linux Xen guest in terms of the paravirt-ops interface. The features in implemented this patch series are: * domU only * UP only (most code is SMP-safe, but there's no way to create a new vcpu) * writable pagetables, with late pinning/early unpinning (no shadow pagetable support) * supports both PAE and non-PAE modes * xen console * virtual block

Unlike full virtualization in which the virtual machine provides the same platform interface as running natively on the hardware, paravirtualization requires modification to the guest operating system to work with the platform interface provided by the hypervisor. Xen was designed with performance in mind. Calls to the hypervisor are minimized, batched if necessary, and non-critical codepaths

Hi Andi, This series of patches implements the Xen paravirt-ops interface. It applies to 2.6.21-rc7 + your patches + the last batch of pv_ops patches I posted. This patch generally restricts itself to Xen-specific parts of the tree, though it does make a few small changes elsewhere. These patches include: - some helper routines for allocating address space and walking pagetables - Xen
