Ok, it turns out that the problem was a bit more complicated than this. There were two bugs, actually: First, Xen's timecounter was being rounded from ns precision to 1/HZ precision for no apparent reason; and second, the periodic clock interrupt isn't being delivered. I've fixed the first of these, and that is enough to prevent the stalling; I need to learn more about Xen interrupts, event channels, etc. to track down why we're not getting a clock interrupt. (The timer set by set_timer_op before we call SCHEDOP_block is waking us up -- but the missing clock interrupt means that we aren't preempting userland code, which is a rather Bad Thing.) -- Colin Percival Security Officer, FreeBSD | freebsd.org | The power to serve Founder / author, Tarsnap | tarsnap.com | Online backups for the truly paranoid From owner-freebsd-xen@FreeBSD.ORG Mon Nov 22 11:07:19 2010 Return-Path: Delivered-To: freebsd-xen@FreeBSD.org Received: from mx1.freebsd.org (mx1.freebsd.org [IPv6:2001:4f8:fff6::34]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 8416D10656A6 for ; Mon, 22 Nov 2010 11:07:19 +0000 (UTC) (envelope-from owner-bugmaster@FreeBSD.org) Received: from freefall.freebsd.org (freefall.freebsd.org [IPv6:2001:4f8:fff6::28]) by mx1.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 712DF8FC21 for ; Mon, 22 Nov 2010 11:07:19 +0000 (UTC) Received: from freefall.freebsd.org (localhost [127.0.0.1]) by freefall.freebsd.org (8.14.4/8.14.4) with ESMTP id oAMB7JYw051952 for ; Mon, 22 Nov 2010 11:07:19 GMT (envelope-from owner-bugmaster@FreeBSD.org) Received: (from gnats@localhost) by freefall.freebsd.org (8.14.4/8.14.4/Submit) id oAMB7Ij6051948 for freebsd-xen@FreeBSD.org; Mon, 22 Nov 2010 11:07:18 GMT (envelope-from owner-bugmaster@FreeBSD.org) Date: Mon, 22 Nov 2010 11:07:18 GMT Message-Id: <201011221107.oAMB7Ij6051948@freefall.freebsd.org> X-Authentication-Warning: freefall.freebsd.org: gnats set sender to owner-bugmaster@FreeBSD.org using -f From: FreeBSD bugmaster To: freebsd-xen@FreeBSD.org Cc: Subject: Current problem reports assigned to freebsd-xen@FreeBSD.org X-BeenThere: freebsd-xen@freebsd.org X-Mailman-Version: 2.1.5 Precedence: list List-Id: Discussion of the freebsd port to xen - implementation and usage List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , X-List-Received-Date: Mon, 22 Nov 2010 11:07:19 -0000 Note: to view an individual PR, use: http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=(number).

It has been quite stable for me. There are still some issues with clock interrupt processing ("time going backwards messages on the console at times"), but nothing that brings down the system. BTW, my testing has been primarily on -current, but I just merged the latest Xen PV driver support into stable/8, so it should work fine there too. -- Justin From owner-freebsd-xen@FreeBSD.ORG Wed Nov 24 17:35:32 2010 Return-Path: Delivered-To: freebsd-xen@freebsd.org Received: from mx1.freebsd.org (mx1.freebsd.org [IPv6:2001:4f8:fff6::34]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 7BA9D1065673 for ; Wed, 24 Nov 2010 17:35:32 +0000 (UTC) (envelope-from seanbru@yahoo-inc.com) Received: from mrout2-b.corp.re1.yahoo.com (mrout2-b.corp.re1.yahoo.com [69.147.107.21]) by mx1.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 3371C8FC21 for ; Wed, 24 Nov 2010 17:35:31 +0000 (UTC) Received: from [127.0.0.1] (rideseveral.corp.yahoo.com [10.73.160.231]) by mrout2-b.corp.re1.yahoo.com (8.14.4/8.14.4/y.out) with ESMTP id oAOHO7ab080034; Wed, 24 Nov 2010 09:24:07 -0800 (PST) DKIM-Signature: v=1; a=rsa-sha256; c=simple/simple; d=yahoo-inc.com; s=cobra; t=1290619447; bh=Ucs4V930MKhq51Hs5X5daKKx/pGmPoLh4rFkz0y4Xw4=; h=Subject:From:Reply-To:To:Cc:In-Reply-To:References:Content-Type: Date:Message-ID:Mime-Version:Content-Transfer-Encoding; b=fS7rnRFUCR7FNtGAzpgojvOiNVOV/dUzwgBXJ4/gULjbBSN2lXvxTFlTzbmIKnuWT fIn5sPVDu49iMZURJypvZlKs/fgUxkxXlSRnlvI+0Xl2r5L6ejI/LxoOuQORU+ZMYs cj9d3spo+rW84kIxXi9jCvgvYYS8bUodZNugfV1c= From: Sean Bruno To: Yuriy Kohut In-Reply-To: References: <4CED1799.6030608@scsiguy.com> Content-Type: text/plain; charset="UTF-8" Date: Wed, 24 Nov 2010 09:24:06 -0800 Message-ID: <1290619446.2630.63.camel@home-yahoo> Mime-Version: 1.0 X-Mailer: Evolution 2.28.3 (2.28.3-1.fc12) Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Cc: "freebsd-xen@freebsd.org" Subject: Re: Xen PV drivers for FreeBSD X-BeenThere: freebsd-xen@freebsd.org X-Mailman-Version: 2.1.5 Precedence: list Reply-To: sbruno@freebsd.org List-Id: Discussion of the freebsd port to xen - implementation and usage List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , X-List-Received-Date: Wed, 24 Nov 2010 17:35:32 -0000 On Wed, 2010-11-24 at 09:03 -0800, Yuriy Kohut wrote: > Hi, > > It is for amd64 only, correct ? > > Do you know is it stable enough ? > --- > Yura > The version in -CURRENT and FreeBSD 8 that Justin is talking about is very stable.
