What is? panic_timeout?Seems sensible on a VMM to inform control software as quickly as possible that you've crashed, rather than spinning in a loop trying to blink a keyboard led that doesn't exist. Even the concept of a timeout before restart makes little sense -- the console output has been sent to an external daemon so it shouldn't get lost like it would if it was printed to vga console and you did a real physical reboot. -- Keir _______________________________________________ Xen-devel mailing list Xen-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.xensource.com/xen-devel |
