           Summary: video ram for hvm guests not properly accounted for when
                    ballooning
           Product: Xen
           Version: unstable
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: Tools
        AssignedTo: xen-bugs@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
        ReportedBy: katzj@xxxxxxxxxx


If you set up an HVM guest with video support, the amount of memory requested by
xend doesn't take into account the video memory.  The device model then requests
more memory.  Which, if you're counting on auto-ballooning of dom0, means that
you don't have sufficient memory.

This should probably get accounted for in getDomainMemory so that we do all of
the memory reservation and ballooning from xend.
