Thanks for doing the tests. I suppose that you have tested HVM guests. IIRC, PV guests are not supported by crash right now due to p2m VMA mapping. At least it was an issue some time ago. Is it still valid? Anyway, one guy in Oracle works on fix for that issue and I do review. We are going to post it in 2-3 weeks. Juergen, I do not have any objections any longer. You can go ahead. Ahhh... I see. You have posted v3. Good! Daniel _______________________________________________ Xen-devel mailing list Xen-devel@lists.xen.org https://lists.xen.org/xen-devel
