        Hi,  
           
          I have a host running Debian Squeeze with Xen 4.0.1 installed
          from the Debian repository.  My host is working fine running
          10 domUs, except that after some number of days one or more
          domUs lose their network interface.  In dom0 and domU I'm
          running kernel 2.6.32-5-xen-amd64 (PV kernel in Debian repo),
          and interfaces are in a bridged config.  
           
         
         
        In case anyone runs into something similar, I did figure out how
        to resolve my issue without having to reboot the domU... which
        is a slight improvement I suppose.  
         
        Running  
           xm network-detach domUName 0  
         
        Causes eth0 to disappear in the domain, and the following to
        show up in dmesg:  
         
          net eth0: xennet_release_rx_bufs: fix me for copying receiver.
         
         
        Then running an xm network-attach will bring eth0 back and
        everything will be okay.  
         
        I also tried rmmoding xen_netfront in domU before I figured out
        the network-detach, but this doesn't help.  When modprobing
        again, the domU says "eth0: link is not ready".  This also
        causes any subsequent attempt to network-detach in dom0 to get
        stuck and eventually timeout with "Device 0 (vif) could not be
        disconnected."  
         
        Also, when the vif is stuck, the TX dropped packets shown in
        dom0 is steadily increasing.  It seems that dom0 is having
        trouble sending packets to domU because one of the two gets
        stuck in an unexpected state.  At least doing a network-detach
        will reset the state and allow things to run properly again.

      I have a similar issue, however my DomU's seem to get their
      connection back after a while automatically, most of the time it
      happens when I physically login to the Dom0 :/

    Same for me, anyone knows if a bug report has been filled somewhere
    for this ?
