Current xen-unstable (debug build) crashes when using xentrace command,
due to assertion failures. It seems assertion failures occur whenever
there exist lost records, and I don't see much reason to do this.
(Could anyone explain about these ASSERT lines ?)
These asserts appear to have originally been checking that bytes_to_wrap is
being calculated correctly... It looks to me that the first assert
isoutdated though, because it clearly will fail if a record is lost.
Perhaps the second one ought to succed though, since the value of buf->prod
will have been appropriately updated by insert_lost_records()?
Indeed the second assert seems to always succeed.
Cheers,
Mark
The attached patch removes assertions to avoid system crashes,
and also fixes a mistake of an assignment statement.
