[Xen-devel] [PATCH v2 0/4] fix freemem loop

[Stefano Stabellini <stefano.stabellini@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi all,

this patch series fixes the freemem loop on machines with very large
amount of memory, where the current wait time is not enough.

In order to be able to handle arbitrarly large amount of ram, we
implement in libxl_wait_for_memory_target a policy of waiting until dom0
is making progress.  The patch series also reverts "libxl: Wait for
ballooning if free memory is increasing", that is not actually
implemented correctly.


Changes on v2:
- update comment in libxl.h for libxl_wait_for_memory_target


Stefano Stabellini (4):
      Revert "libxl: Wait for ballooning if free memory is increasing"
      libxl_wait_for_memory_target: wait as long as dom0 is making progress
      freemem: remove call to libxl_wait_for_free_memory
      libxl_wait_for_memory_target: wait for 2 sec at a time
