similar to: [PATCH v2 1/1] xen/netback: correctly calculate required slots of skb.

When counting required slots for skb, netback directly uses DIV_ROUND_UP to get slots required by header data. This is wrong when offset in the page of header data is not zero, and is also inconsistent with following calculation for required slot in netbk_gop_skb. In netbk_gop_skb, required slots are calculated based on offset and len in page of header data. It is possible that required slots

This dependence is undesirable and logically incorrect. It''s undesirable because Xen network protocol should not depend on a OS-specific constant. It''s incorrect because the ring slots required doesn''t correspond to the number of frags a SKB has (consider compound page frags). This patch removes this dependence by correctly counting the ring slots required.

Hi, I ran into an issue where netback driver is crashing with BUG_ON(npo.meta_prod > ARRAY_SIZE(netbk->meta)). It is happening in Intel 10Gbps network when larger mtu values are used. The problem seems to be the way the slots are counted. After applying this patch things ran fine in my environment. I request to validate my changes. Thanks Siva

This patch adds code to handle SKB_GSO_TCPV6 skbs and construct appropriate extra or prefix segments to pass the large packet to the frontend. New xenstore flags, feature-gso-tcpv6 and feature-gso-tcpv6-prefix, are sampled to determine if the frontend is capable of handling such packets.

Hi Ian, Today i fired up an old VM with a bittorrent client, trying to download some torrents. I seem to be hitting the unlikely case of "xennet: skb rides the rocket: xx slots" and this results in some dropped packets in domU, I don''t see any warnings in dom0. I have added some extra info, but i don''t have enough knowledge if this could/should be prevented from

Hi All, I am sure this has been answered somewhere in the list in the past, but I can''t find it. I was wondering if the linux guest netfront driver has GRO support in it. tcpdump shows packets coming in with 1500 bytes, although the eth0 in dom0 and the vif corresponding to the linux guest in dom0 is showing that they receive large packet: In dom0: eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr

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

Hi All, How can I get the expected value from a discrete cdf? Is there any R function that can do this? Thanks, Annie [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

Hello, I to issue a grant on a page, but only partially. I have a pointer to somewhere in memory and need to issue the grant for such a pointer but not to the entire page. I know FLAG GTF_sub_page is used for that purpose but grant_entry_v1 apparently has no fields for sub_page, should I change the code to use Version 2 grant table entries? Thanks, Daniel -- +-=====---------------------------+

Hi In rtc_set_time, mktime is called to calculate seconds since 1970/01/01, input parameters of mktime are required to be in normal date format. Such as: year=1980, mon=12, day=31, hour=23, min=59, sec=59. However, the current input parameter of mktime is tm->tm_year, and it is the number of years since 1900. (For example, if current time is 2012/12/31, and tm->tm_year is 112). This is

Hi, All, How can I get the indices of the minimum elements in a matrix without using a loop? For example, if the matrix is 4 5 2 2 8 9 5 2 3 Then I want to output (1,3), (2,1), (3,2). Thanks, Annie [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

Hi, R users, I am trying to use glm to do logistic regression. I know generally when I have two covariates, say x1 and x2, then I do fit <- glm(y~x1+x2,famliy='binomial') But now my covariates form a n*p matrix, say x, so actually each column is a covariate. So I think I should do fit <- glm(y~x,family='binomial') Then I need to predict new data. How should I write the

Hi All, I have a 2-dim density defined on 0<x<1, 0<y<1, x<y. I know the exact formula of the density. How can I visualize it? What plot functions can I use? Thanks, Annie [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

Hi, I'm having a problem accessing my samba server from Windows. The problem occurs every time I try to browse to it on either XP or 2003 Server. The error message I get is: "\\Zeus is not accessible. You might not have permission to use this network resource. Contact the administrator of this server to find out if you have access permissions.

Hi, R users, What may be the best function in R to do variable selection in logistic regression? I have the same number of variables as the number of samples, and I want to select the best variablesfor prediction. Is there any function doing forward selection followed by backward elimination in stepwise logistic regression? Thanks, Annie [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

Hi I am developing Window pv network driver and hit a problem now. My server use Xen 3.1.4 and have 2 physical CPUs. When I create two VM with 1 VCPU on a same server, iperf performance is OK between those two VM, but there is performance degradation between those 2 VM when i increase VCPU from 1 to 2. This problem occurs in QEMU mode too. Does Xen 3.1.4 has such problem or anything wrong

Dear Sir, Very glad to send E-mali to you , Im Annie. I have encountered some problems on the way of learning opus, so I would like to consult you. I found "global_stack" was not released after malloc, and malloc memory was too large.So what I want to ask you is whether "global_stack" malloc can have less memory, since the value "GLOBAL_STACK_SIZE" can be

Hello llvm-dev! We are currently building a tool using LLVM which statically computes the worst-case stack depth for programs whose call-graphs are statically constrained. While this task is undecidable for general programs, we specifically plan to use it to analyze all entry points into Zircon’s kernel and the vDSO. Currently, without such a tool, the best option for allocating kernel memory in

Hi, R users, Is there any package for penalized logistic regression with more than two response classes? I read the manual for stepPlr, but it seems it's only for binary case. Thank you, Annie [[alternative HTML version deleted]]
