Bug #296 describes the possible Out-Of-Memory outcome of a console flood. Currently, xenconsoled has the ability to obey a limit, but Xend does not set it, to prevent console message loss. I propose that a configuration option be added to xend-config.sxp that sets the limit. That way, a user with a large console buffer requirement can easily set it, and OOM situations can be avoided. I'll be happy to knock up a patch if this sounds reasonable. Thoughts? -- Dan Smith IBM Linux Technology Center Open Hypervisor Team email: danms@xxxxxxxxxx _______________________________________________ Xen-devel mailing list Xen-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.xensource.com/xen-devel |
