Subject: I/O related (?) domU crash on xen 4.0 + pv_ops
Date: Tue, 8 Jun 2010 13:16:05 -0700	[thread overview]

Hey,

I'm running into an issue with pv_ops kernel (2.6.31.13) and xen 4.0 - 
my domU's are continually locking up, under heavy IO load. My issue 
seems similar to what these guys are reportiing:

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=551552
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=526627
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=550724

Any solutions/ideas that haven't been covered in those reports? I've 
turned off tickless kernel, and have also set the guest I/O scheduler to 
"noop", but machines are still crashing. I'm using LVM-backed block 
devices on the dom0. For awhile, I didn't have the kernel set to panic 
on a hung task, and from digging around while the kernel was still up, I 
was able to determine that the device that seems to be causing issues is 
one that sees a lot of IO (it's receiving all of the logs on a heavily 
used web server).

Here's a couple of my tracebacks:
1)
