Hello Jan,
perhaps you can shed some light on the state of the xenfied SUSE kernels
(http://kernel.opensuse.org/cgit/kernel-source).
We use xenified kernels based on kernel 3.4 for years and benchmarks
showed that they are faster than the pvops (vanilla) kernels.
But what is the current stat

I'm not sure what you expect here. Up to openSUSE 42.1 an
Somehow I cannot find *recent* information on dom0 kernels in the wiki.
Which dom0 kernels do the Xen developers use for test/production? Are
there recommended versions (for example 4.4) for production?
Are are any dependencies/incompatibilities between Xen versions and dom0

It tells me that there's nothing unexpected on that side. As I think I

- Make QEMU setup the vectors when the table entries are unmasked,
even if MSIX is not enabled.
- Provide an hypercall so QEMU can unmask MSIX vectors on behalf of
the guest. This would be used to unmask the entries if MSIX is
enabled with table entries already unmasked.

Hello,
I noticed that PCI passthrough for an LSI SAS HBA 9211 did not longer work (at
least under Windows) when using Xen 4.8.1.
I then bisected through various released versions and finally I narrowed it
down to
4.5.5 (with qemu from Xen 4.6.5) -> working

I am currently validating 4.5.1-rc1 as a stable platform for production
environments. I perform a series of tests which stress the IO subsystems
(net+disk) to the max. For block IO I reach more than 1.5 gigabytes/sec.
The tests also hash (SHA1) all IO and verify it against known values so
I can
Is this still current? I made an interesting observation:
I had no problems with SPICE and vanilla Xen 4.5.1 when using it on

change Xen source code at all.

Hello Xen developers,
since we use Xen for our production systems, I run many tests on Xen
(stability/performance). One test now uncovered a serious performance
regression when updating from Xen 4.2.3 to 4.2.x (with x>=4). To
reproduce run a domU (HVM) and compile a kernel for example ("time m

There are a number of correctness fixes in that range which will
adversely affect performance.
