As soon as I noticed that the lost data is always in PAGE_SIZE multiples, I figured I'd better boot in plain Linux instead of Xen, and when I did that it worked perfectly.
What happens if you boot dom0 with 'dom0_mem=max:1G' and limit the amount of memory
Xen sees by using 'mem=4G' on the Xen command line?

I'm hoping there is just a flag missing or something when the adapter allocates buffers for DMA. Can anyone offer any suggestions as to what I'm looking for before I dive in?
