Thread-topic: [Xen-devel] Big network problem on recent kernel update fromxen/stable2.6.32.x
I discovered the same issue, with PV drivers only.  On Xen 3.4.3 and
4.0.0, I experienced the same problems.  Using one fully HVM linux domu,
and fully PV linux domu, and one windows domu with gplpv drivers, I
tested a 2.6.32.13 build from two weeks ago, and a 2.6.32.15 build from
Saturday with the same config.  PV network does not work properly with
2.6.32.15, but qemu emulated device in the HVM domain without PV drivers
works fine.  All three work just fine with 2.6.32.13.  Symptom is that
packets never seem to get back to the domu.  For example, I have VMs on
192.168.2.0/24 subnet, and dom0 routes traffic to local physical net on
192.168.1.0/24.  If I ping 192.168.1.1 from a domu with PV drivers, I
can see the echo request and reply in tcpdump on the bridge device on
dom0, but domu does not seem to see the reply.  In some other cases,
domu sees the reply, but reports 999-1001ms response times, which I know
are inaccurate by watching tcpdump output.  Traffic other than ICMP is
completely unreliable; the packets that do get through have incredibly
high latency.  I'm 100% sure I don't have iptables or other network
config problems.
