Re: [Xen-devel] vif's disappear after dom1 reboot

[Wensheng Wang <wenshengwang@xxxxxxxxx>]

So nobody experienced this bug?

I'd like to add some more info I just found.
I can now reliably reproduce this bug with only 2 domainU's

Rebooting dom 1 will disable vif1?.0 (like vif11.0 vif12.0 vif13.0
...); rebooting dom2 will disable vif2?.0, rebooting dom3 will disable
vif3?.0

To reproduce, prepare 2 lvm for guest domain for example
/dev/vg0/breezy and /dev/vg0/sarge
Their config files are in /etc/xen/auto/breezy and /etc/xen/auto/sarge

Bring one guest domain up first, it will have a domain id 1
#xm create /etc/xen/auto/breezy

Mount the other lvm to /mnt and create guest domain.  Because lvm is
mounted, domain creation will not be successful, it will be in paused
state. This is purely for incrementing dom id number.
#mount /dev/vg0/sarge /mnt
#for i in `seq 2 10`;do xm create /etc/xen/auto/sarge || xm destroy $i;done

umount that lvm and create that domain, the domain will have id 11
#umount /mnt
#xm create /etc/xen/auto/sarge

Now 2 domainU alive, "brctl show" show vif0.0 vif1.0 vif11.0
#xm list
#brctl show

now reboot domain 1
#xm shutdown -R 1

What should happen is that after this there should be 2 domain with id
11 and 12 using vif11.0 and vif12.0

What actually happen is:
1, there is only one domain: domain 11
2, vif11 dissapeared.
3. there is dangling vif12.0
4, domain 11 dead

here is what I get if I do "xm console 11"
