Andy, Here is the left circular shift operator patch. I apologize to the reviewer in advance. The patch has a good bit of fine detail. Any comments/criticisms? Some caveats... 1) This is just the bare minimum needed to make the left circular shift operator work (e.g. no instruction combining). 2) I tried my best to select operator names in the existing style; please feel free to change them as

Hi, Nick, thanks for the reply. I still have a problem: I only need to "clone" an Instruction, changing its type. That is, I would like to keep all characteristics of the old Instruction and create a new one only with a different type. I am trying create a new Instruction thus: %3 = add nsw i32 %1, %2 ; <i16> [#uses=2] //Old Instruction Value* Op0 = I->getOperand(0); Value*

Package: xen-hypervisor-4.0-amd64 Version: 4.0.1-1 Severity: normal My 32Bit Dom0-crashes with error "Out of SW-IOMMU space for 65536 bytes" after doing moderate I/O on the local storage, which is a software-raid1 over 3 harddrives, connected to the builtin Perc H200 controller with ext3-fs. The error is reproduceable with "dd if=/dev/zero of=bigfile bs=1024 count=1000000"

Hi, another issue I''m seeing with 3.0-rc2 and Xen is that there is an unexpectedly high amount of kernel reserved memory. I suspect that Linux allocates page table entries and corresponding data structures for the whole 6GB areas of the provided ''physical RAM map'' even though it has rather big unusable holes in it. [ 0.000000] BIOS-provided physical RAM map: [

Lots of changes since v2, too much to remember or summarize. Please ignore patch 11/11, it's just for my testing. Rich.

Oh, no. I should have been more clear. The patch was not rejected, just lost in the daily shuffle. I already have my employer's approval to send this upstream, so I will prepare a patch against trunk this morning. > I proposed a similar patch to LLVM (left circular shift) around 10/2011. > > Parts of my patch did make it into trunk about a year after, but others > > did not.

This issue I am encountering seems to only happen on multi-socket machines. It also does not help that the only multi-socket box I have is an Romley-EP (so two socket SandyBridge CPUs). The other SandyBridge boxes I''ve (one socket) are not showing this. Granted they are also a different model (42). The problem is that when I run ''perf top'' within an SMP PVHVM guest,

This is a follow-up of commit cfd8983f03c7b2 ("x86, locking/spinlocks: Remove ticket (spin)lock implementation"). The static_key structure paravirt_ticketlocks_enabled is now removed as it is no longer used. As a result, the init functions kvm_spinlock_init_jump() and xen_init_spinlocks_jump() are also removed. A simple build and boot test was done to verify it. Signed-off-by: Waiman

At the most recent Xen Summit, Thomas Friebel presented a paper ("Preventing Guests from Spinning Around", http://xen.org/files/xensummitboston08/LHP.pdf) investigating the interactions between spinlocks and virtual machines. Specifically, he looked at what happens when a lock-holding VCPU gets involuntarily preempted. The obvious first order effect is that while the VCPU is not

Hi! We have a problem that the dom0 very often does not boot and hangs in the hypervisor - see screenshot. The last message is: (XEN) Dom0 has maximum 16 VCPUs (afterwards xen should overwrite the memory) We are using the xen kernel from kernel.org git. Kernel is 2.6.32.24-xen with Xen 4.0.1 Hardware is HP DL380. Is this a known problem? Any hints what could be the problem and how we can

We have implemented hugepage support for guests in following manner In our implementation we added a parameter hugepage_num which is specified in the config file of the DomU. It is the number of hugepages that the guest is guaranteed to receive whenever the kernel asks for hugepage by using its boot time parameter or reserving after booting (eg. Using echo XX > /proc/sys/vm/nr_hugepages).

Hi, When Ubuntu12.04 64bit domU boot up, Intel VGA-passthrough doesn''t work. I used the command "xm create" to boot up Dom-U. Windows7-64bit-SP1 works quite well with same configuration. Boot log is as follows. Dom-U dmesg: [ 1.421858] initcall rfcomm_init+0x0/0xf1 [rfcomm] returned 0 after 2192 usecs [ 1.423021] calling i915_init+0x0/0x8d [i915] @ 387 [ 1.423023]

Hello, I''m attempting to boot Xen 4.0.1 on a SuperMicro H8DGi-F motherboard and having not much luck. I can boot the 2.6.32.26 (or .27) kernels alone, but when I add Xen into the mix, I get consistent boot failure. I''ve tried Xen 4.0.1-release, 4.0.2-rc1-pre and 4.0.2-rc2-pre, all get the same failure. xen/next-2.6.37 works and boots great, but since netback isn''t
