It still niggles somewhat not to have a good theory about why this change had this seemingly random effect, but I've not got any good ideas for avenues to explore and I've got other things to do so I think I'll leave it at that.So should we then re-instate the ticket lock patches? Any update on this? Regards, -- Julien Grall _______________________________________________ Xen-devel mailing list Xen-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.xen.org/xen-devel
