Re: [Xen-devel] xcs segfaults on vm shutdown
Richard Sterling Cox wrote:
hi,
I'm experiencing regular seg-faults of the xcs daemon during vm
shutdown operations (occurring somewhere between 5 and 25 VMs run,
typically).
I've seen xcs crash a number of times with vm-tools. What arguments
were you passing to vm-shutdown? The default operation is to simply
send a CMSG_SHUTDOWN to the domain.
If you're doing a '-d' which invokes xc_destroy, I think that perhaps
what's happening is that xcs is not gracefully handling a disappearing VM.
Regards,
xen: unstable patched through 2005-03-07
dom0: linux-2.6.10-xen0 / Fedora Core 3
gcc: 3.4.2 20041017 (Red Hat 3.4.2-6.fc3)
vmtools: 0.0.3 I believe, but they report (-V) 0.0.1, which is not
true
(not using xend)
The errors usually seem to occur while running 'vm-shutdown'.
I have been running 'xcs -i' under gdb and found that, at least twice,
the error is at xen/tools/xcs/ctrl_interface.c:143. Here is the output
of one such session (the error is repeatable enough that I should be
able to provide other info if anyone is interested):
