hello. Following up on this thread, I'm still having a problem with starting domains under FreebSD-12.1 as dom0 after ensuring that /var/lib/xenstoredb/tdb is deleted on startup. The first domu starts just fine, an old NetBSD-5.2 domain. the second one, however, a NetBSD-current as of January 19 or so, however, starts fine but doesn't have a network interface by the time it gets to multiuser mode. The errors on the back end look like:
xnb(xnb_probe:1129): Claiming device 1, xnb xnb(xnb_attach:1273): Attaching to backend/vif/10/0 xnb(xnb_frontend_changed:1397): frontend_state=Initialising, xnb_state=InitWait xnb10.0: link state changed to DOWN xnb10.0: link state changed to UP xnb10.0: link state changed to DOWN xnb10.0: promiscuous mode enabled xnb10.0: link state changed to UP nd6_dad_timer: cancel DAD on xnb10.0 because of ND6_IFF_IFDISABLED. xnb(xnb_frontend_changed:1397): frontend_state=Initialised, xnb_state=InitWait xnb1: Error 2 Unable to retrieve ring information from frontend /local/domain/10/device/vif/0. Unable to connect. xnb1: Fatal error. Transitioning to Closing State xnb(xnb_frontend_changed:1397): frontend_state=Connected, xnb_state=Closing xnb(xnb_connect_comms:793): rings connected! xnb(xnb_frontend_changed:1397): frontend_state=Closed, xnb_state=Connected In looking at the code, it looks like this is failing somewhere in xs_gather() in syskj/dev/xen/xenstore/xenstore.c I thought it was some kind of race condition at first, because I could stop the domains that didn't come up with a network interface, wait a bit, restar them and find they worked. Now, however, having upgraded to 12.1-P13, I find that I'm consistently getting this failure regardless of how often I destroy and create the domain. Any ideas on what might be going on? -thanks -Brian _______________________________________________ freebsd-xen@freebsd.org mailing list https://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-xen To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-xen-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
