I did some other tests, I narrowed down the commit range to the one between:

commit c9fea5d701f8fd33f0843728ec264d95cee3ed37 Mon, 22 Jul 2013
15:14:18 (Merge remote-tracking branch 'bonzini/iommu-for-anthony')
where there is virtio net regression with xen

and

commit    962b03fcf509db25c847aa67c4eff574c240dcfe Thu, 4 Jul 2013
15:42:43 +0000 (xen: Mark fixed platform I/O as unaligned)
where virtio net is working

I also tested:
commit 2562becfc126ed7678c662ee23b7c1fe135d8966 Mon, 15 Jul 2013
19:02:41 +0000
and
commit dcb117bfda5af6f6ceb7231778d36d8bce4aee93 Thu, 4 Jul 2013
15:42:46 +0000
but qemu crashes on xl create for another error and I haven't found
which is the commit to apply with git cherry-pick so that I can
check if the virtio net regression is present.

Can someone help me please?

I added also qemu-devel to cc.


I did a quick test with Xen's QEMU, currently at

commit 1c514a7734b7f98625a0d18d5e8ee7581f26e50c
Merge: 79c097d 35bdc13
Author: Stefano Stabellini <stefano.stabellini@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>
Date:   Tue Jun 25 11:34:24 2013 +0000

Merge remote branch 'perard/cpu-hotplug-port-v2' into xen-staging-master-7

from git://xenbits.xen.org/qemu-upstream-unstable.git

My guest is Squeeze with stock kernel 2.6.32.

vif=['model=virtio-net-pci,bridge=xenbr0']

No pci=nomsi in guest kernel command line.

Everything worked fine. And /proc/interrupts shows that it's indeed
using MSI for virtio PCI.

I'm kind of confused. (And in the long run of this thread I probably
didn't remember everything.)

Wei.

I tried with "commit e16435c95be86244bd92c5c26579bd4298aa65a6 (xen_disk: mark ioreq as mapped before unmapping in error case)" from git://xenbits.xen.org/qemu-upstream-4.3-testing.git.
There are only 4 commits difference between mine and your test.
FWIK the only other difference is domUs kernel versions, and the msi problem is probably a regression between kernel 2.6.32 and 3.2 (the "older" domUs used in my tests was Precise with kernel 3.2).
Tomorrow I'll try also with squeeze.

I tested with squeeze and with qemu 1.3.1, virtio net works also without pci=nomsi, so seems kernel regression about msi using xen (that make virtio devices not working) between versions 2.6.32 and 3.2.
Any idea about solve it?


RIguardo invece l'altra regressione qemu tra il 4 e 22 luglio che da errore xen mapcache usando virtio net puoi aiutarmi? Another question: the qemu 1.6 regression between july 4th-22nd commits (qemu crash on domU kernel load with xen mapcache error with virtio net), could you help me?

Thanks for any reply.

I did another test about this qemu regression and I'm unable to decrease the range of commits :(
