Re: [Xen-users] xen kernel errors

[John McMonagle <johnm@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Still having the problem.

Concerning igb error I have tried the following  one at a time:
New igb driver from Intel site.
kernel parameter  pcie_aspm=off
ethtool -K eth0 tx off  on dom0
ethtool -K eth0 gro off  on dom0 

Concerning the enlighten.c error. While it does seem to do anything if it 
concerns me  power management may be it's the real cause of problems.

I got the debian kernel source and line 726 is the line with the *****

static void xen_clts(void)
{
        struct multicall_space mcs;  *****

        mcs = xen_mc_entry(0);

        MULTI_fpu_taskswitch(mcs.mc, 0);

        xen_mc_issue(PARAVIRT_LAZY_CPU);
}

Means nothing to me :-(

It has never died doing iperf from dom0 or domu  <> external.
Never died during network backup.

Usually takes a least a few hours and has never made it a day running a domu.
Any ideas?
I'm pretty much down to different network cards.

John
