Re: [Xen-devel] I/O related (?) domU crash on xen 4.0 + pv_ops
I booted into 2.6.32.12 yesterday, but I'm
still getting a hung task crash. (Initially, I got a soft lockup crash
on one of the cpu's, after switching to 2.6.32.12, but it seems I was
able to resolve that by switching the kernel to tickless)
I built the kernel myself (for both dom0 and domU), from the xen/stable-2.6.31.x and xen/stable-2.6.32.x branches.
I tried "clocksource=jiffies" earlier, but didnt give it a fair enough
shake. The time drift ended up becoming pretty bad, even with ntp, so I
had to switch out of it. I'll give it another try today; I'm sure I can
probably figure out the drift issue.

Hey,
I'm running into an issue with pv_ops kernel (2.6.31.13) and xen 4.0 -
my domU's are continually locking up, under heavy IO load. My issue
seems similar to what these guys are reportiing:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=551552
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=526627
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=550724
Any solutions/ideas that haven't been covered in those reports? I've
turned off tickless kernel, and have also set the guest I/O scheduler
to "noop", but machines are still crashing. I'm using LVM-backed block
devices on the dom0. For awhile, I didn't have the kernel set to panic
on a hung task, and from digging around while the kernel was still up,
I was able to determine that the device that seems to be causing
issues is one that sees a lot of IO (it's receiving all of the logs on
a heavily used web server).
Does booting the domU with "clocksource=jiffies" help at all?
Have you tried a 2.6.32-based domU? I used to see these kinds of
lockups with older kernels on my linode domU, but have seen none since
moving it to Fedora 12 with a 2.6.32 kernel.
Are you using a distro kernel, or one you've built yourself?
