After fixing the segfault bugs, xenconsoled intermittently fails and exits with: Mar 7 16:45:49 localhost /usr/sbin/xenconsoled: Failure in poll xs_handle: 3 (No such process) The test case is attempting to sequentially boot 1000 PV VMs on the same host. So far, the common theme of failures appear to be at multiples of 128 VMs. This is usually at the 128th VM, but also seen at the 384th VM. ~Andrew _______________________________________________ Xen-devel mailing list Xen-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.xen.org/xen-devel
