Dan,

I had a look at HVM-807 you mentioned.

Shouldn't line 251 in 'net/vnic.c' be
for (i = 0; i < MIN(iovcnt, FRAMEIO_NVECS_MAX); i++, iov++) {

instead of
for (i = 0; i < MIN(iovcnt, FRAMEIO_NVECS_MAX - 1); i++, iov++) {

As otherwise the last element of the frameio will not be used at all if
iovcnt is greater than the frameio buffer size?

Kind regards
Dominik
