Re: [Xen-devel] Live migration leaves page tables read-only?



I forgot to mention that a very simple test case I wrote using shared memory and the mprotect call didn't fail. So, the only test case I have at the moment is to run SAP.

I have been trying to debug a problem live-migrating SAP on Xen-3.0.3 x86-64 (I also tested Xen-unstable changeset 12548) without success.

SAP seems to run fine on a given host; live-migrating it to another host causes the guest to almost immediately panic in the mprotect() call in the change_pte_range() routine in the set_pte_at() macro because the page table page it is trying to update is write-protected.

My attempts at understanding where this is coming from have come to naught. Any help in running this down would be appreciated. I am perfectly willing/able to write some debugging code if I am given a few clues what to look for.

Thanks,

John Byrne
