I am currently looking at a bug report[1] which is happening when a Xen PVM guest with multiple VCPUs is running a high IO database load (a test script is available in the bug report). In experimenting it seems that this happens (or is getting more likely) when the number of VCPUs is 8 or higher (though I have not tried 6, only 2 and 4), having autogroup enabled seems to make it more likely, too

Hi, I have some problems to configure the xen I''ve installed (3.3.1). The computer is a Intel Core 2 Duo, I''m using Ubuntu 8.10 and have linux in my dom0 and winxp pro in my domU. I have two cores and I''d like to set the affinity of dom0 to cpu0 and domU to cpu1 but I haven''t find the way of making this permanent. I''ve set cpus=1 in the domU config

Hi Everyone, I am running 3.2.1 on Centos 5.2 with HAP enabled, NUMA enabled, ACPI enabled and the dom0 allocated 512Mb. I have setup a single core 1Gb VM for performance testing under Windows 2008 Server. Most CPU results are within a few percent of theoretical max but Memory performance is about half what I expected. I get 3.22Gb/Sec Sandra 2009 Memory performance for a single Opteron 8350

The patch ''mem_event: use wait queue when ring is full'' I just sent out makes use of the waitqueue feature. There are two issues I get with the change applied: I think I got the logic right, and in my testing vcpu->pause_count drops to zero in p2m_mem_paging_resume(). But for some reason the vcpu does not make progress after the first wakeup. In my debugging there is one

Hello, I''m trying to get PDB working in accordance with the instructions at http://www.cl.cam.ac.uk/~sos22/replay.bk/docs/misc/XenDebugger-HOWTO and a message from this list: http://lists.xensource.com/archives/html/xen-devel/2004-08/msg00017.html When I try to build pdb I first get errors because the Makefile is configured to treat warnings as errors, and there are some warnings.
