[Xen-devel] Test results on Unisys ES7000 64x 166gb using xen-unstable c/s 15880 -no new issues, 5 old issues

["Krysan, Susan" <KRYSANS@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Host:  Unisys ES7000/one, x86_64, 64 processors, 256GB RAM, but xen only boots with 166 GB RAM due to bug#1049

 

xen-unstable changeset 15880 compiled with max_phys_cpus=64 and booted with dom0_mem=512M numa=on

 

OLD ISSUES:

 

• Bug #1050 - after c/s 15203, networking does not work unless a default gateway is specified
• Bug #1051 - after c/s 15203, all xm-test tests fail with XmTestLib.NetConfig.NetworkError: Failed to show vif0.0 aliases: 65280 – workaround is to comment out lines in cleanDom0Aliases in xm-test/lib/XmTestLib/NetConfig.py until xm-test code is changed to accommodate the new bridge naming scheme
• Bug #1049 - When boot the host with more than 166 GB RAM, the host only sees a maximum of 166GB
• Bug #1037 - Shutdown of large domains takes a long time, during which time dom0 is not interruptible (due to the synchronous tearing down of the memory map)
• Bug #940 - Must specify hpet=disable kernel parameter to get 32-bit SLES10 domVTs to boot; narrowed down to c/s 14436 but the patch originator cannot recreate on his hardware

 

Testing includes running xm-test and also attempting to boot and run programs in the following domUs and domVTs (running domains #s 3 through 9 simultaneously):

 

1.       32-processor 64-bit SLES10 domU with 160gb memory – run kernbench

2.       32-processor 64-bit SLES10 domVT with 160gb memory – run kernbench

3.       8-processor 64-bit SLES10 domU with 16gb memory - run kernbench

4.       8-procesor 32-bit SLES10 domVT with 4gb memory (booted with hpet=disable) - run kernbench

5.       8-processor 32-bit PAE SLES10 domVT with 16gb memory (booted with hpet=disable) - run kernbench

6.       8-processor 64-bit SLES10 domVT with 16gb memory – run kernbench

7.       1-processor Windows XP domVT with 4gb memory – run 100% cpu intensive program

8.       1-processor Windows 2003 Server domVT with 4gb memory – run 100% cpu intensive program

            9.   8-processor Windows 2003 Enterprise Edition domVT with 16gb memory – run 100% cpu intensive program

 

Results:

 

All domains ran successfully.

 

Ran xm-test (DomU) on dom0 with the following results:

 

(Could only run after commenting out the call to cleanDom0Aliases in xm-test/lib/XmTestLib/NetConfig.py and most of the failures are related to not finding device vif0.0 – this was not necessary before c/s 15203)
