Hi, After some more testing I thought it would be good to put this into production for my personal server. I've used pvhvm_v19 and built it without debugging options and installed it on a FreeBSD 9.1 system.
I've run into some hiccups with 9.1 user land and a 10-CURRENT kernel, but that's all solvable[0]. My VPS has some very limited memory (256M), but I've compensated with swap space (1G) Now anytime I'm putting the system under stress, by building ports or by running a git clone on the kernel repository here, I'm seeing a lot of messages about swap_pager: > swap_pager: indefinite wait buffer: bufobj: 0, blkno: 132545, size: 4096 The system also becomes very sluggish and sometimes unresponsive. The weird thing was that one of these messages happened right after a reboot when I rebuilt an outdated port and on the main console was checking the swap memory: > jeroen:~/ $ swapinfo > [8:13:29] > Device 1K-blocks Used Avail Capacity > /dev/ada0p2 524288 2484 521804 0% > /dev/md0 1048576 2364 1046212 0% > Total 1572864 4848 1568016 0% > swap_pager: indefinite wait buffer: bufobj: 0, blkno: 131424, size: 4096 Is anyone else seeing something similar? I certainly did not experience something like this on 9.0 with a XENHVM kernel. If necessary I can rebuild a kernel with debugging support and do some more recording of what is actually going on. Jeroen. [0]: I have edited bsd.port.mk to always apply the FBSD10_FIX, and for version checking I am running "pkg version" with UNAME_r=9.1-RELEASE. _______________________________________________ freebsd-virtualization@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-virtualization To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-virtualization-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
