Re: [Xen-devel] Is this a bug of xentrace?

[Hui Kang <hkang@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Ok, I know that 0x00007fff is for the idle domain, because when I use 
xenmon it has the same idle domain. However, I have one guest domain 
running an infinite loop program (while{ int temp = 676*1.5;}). This 
guest domain is listed by "xm list". But xenmon and xentrace can not 
detect this guest domain.
However, when I stop the program in that domain, xentrace and xenmon can 
detect it. Why?
Thanks.
