Hi Roger, We are testing the indirect feature of xen-blkfront module these days. And we found that, after VM live-migrate a couple of times, the "%util" of iostat keeps being 100%, and there are several requests stock in "avgqu-sz". We have checked some later version of Linux, and it happens on Ubuntu 14.04, Ubuntu 14.10 and RHEL 7.0.
The iostat shows like below: avg-cpu: %user %nice %system %iowait %steal %idle 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 100.00 Device: rrqm/s wrqm/s r/s w/s rkB/s wkB/s avgrq-sz avgqu-sz await r_await w_await svctm %util xvda 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 4.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 100.00 dm-0 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 dm-1 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 Could you tell us that why is this happening, is this a bug? Thanks!
