[Xen-users] Xen bridging issue.





Hello

I sent an email before about bridging not working in domU using Debian 8.1 and XEN 4.4.1.

It was not the network card "igb" as I first taught.

I managed to get bridging working in DOMU if is set the limit of cpu's in dom0 to 14, this is from /etc/default/grub
when it works ok:

GRUB_CMDLINE_XEN="dom0_max_vcpus=14 dom0_vcpus_pin"


Is there any known issue/limitations running xen with more with more than 14 CPU cores in dom0?


The cpu in question is:

processor       : 16
vendor_id       : GenuineIntel
cpu family      : 6
model           : 63
model name      : Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E5-2650 v3 @ 2.30GHz
stepping        : 2
microcode       : 0x2d
cpu MHz         : 2298.718

If I set it to 17 in dom0:

GRUB_CMDLINE_XEN="dom0_max_vcpus=17 dom0_vcpus_pin"

Then I get this oops whan I try to boot domU with 40 vcpu's.
