The extent_order on the reservations is 0.
Any ideas?
Just because you called decrease_reservation() doesn't mean the pages
necessarily really got freed. If you still have mappings to them squirrelled
away then the free can be deferred.
Ah, that explains it, thank you. I was taking the fact that the return
value equaled the number I tried to decrease meant that it really did
decrease by that amount. But, owing to a bug, I do in fact have
mappings still lying around.
Xen really does need a developer manual -;)
