I just finished tested this patch in conjunction with the LIBXL_MAXMEM_CONSTANT removal patch. The freemem_slack zone is no longer reserved, and that aspect of the ballooning issue appears fixed. There is still a problem with xl's freemem loop, but we can investigate that further with slack out of the picture. >From my side: Acked-by: Mike Latimer <mlati...@suse.com> Thanks, Mike _______________________________________________ Xen-devel mailing list Xen-devel@lists.xen.org http://lists.xen.org/xen-devel
