commit 0a8ef2fa450aa9673dd2e0d25bb16931aea2bf1e Author: Rahul Singh <rahul.singh@xxxxxxx> AuthorDate: Wed Sep 7 17:27:34 2022 +0100 Commit: Julien Grall <jgrall@xxxxxxxxxx> CommitDate: Thu Sep 8 12:21:58 2022 +0100 xen/evtchn: restrict the maximum number of evtchn supported for domUs Restrict the maximum number of evtchn supported for domUs to avoid allocating a large amount of memory in Xen. Set the default value of max_evtchn_port to 1023. The value of 1023 should be sufficient for guests because on ARM we don't bind physical interrupts to event channels. The only use of the evtchn port is inter-domain communications. Another reason why we choose the value of 1023 is to follow the default behavior of libxl.
