AW: [Xen-users] GPL PV drivers for Windows 0.9.11-pre12



Hi

After having problems with earlier versions of the gplpv drivers (not
receiving any network packets), I just tried the current -pre12 drivers.
Still the same problem:
- the xennet device does not receive any packets.

Therefore I rebooted to stay without gplpv drivers, as the speed  is mostly
fine for me.
However, now I have some strange effects in the device manager (booted
without /gplpv):
- The xen net device is shown but marked.
- There are two Xen block device Driver entries shown but marked.
- Xen stub device drivers (Console & Virtual frame Buffer) shown but marked.
By marked, I mean this yellow exclamation mark.

Is this normal?
I am fearing to loose my data partition because of the duplicate block
device drivers.

Regards,
  Steffen

Betreff: [Xen-users] GPL PV drivers for Windows 0.9.11-pre12

I've just uploaded 0.9.11-pre12 of the GPL PV drivers for Windows.

Since -pre10 (and -pre11) I've fixed a heap of crashes that were
plaguing xennet under load, and also rewritten the interrupt/event
distribution logic to improve performance.

Under windows 2003 I can now get network speeds of 1-2Gbit/second TX and
600Gbit/second RX, which is considerably better than I was getting
before.

Please download it and give it a go.
