Do you have a support contact at Nvidia to report this?

Interesting but is guest built with CONFIG_SMP set?

what are these #s 49665 and so on?
and how large is the ring?
I am guessing 49664 is the index ring size is 16 and
49664 % 16 == 0

is this the avail ring contents?

What are these arrows pointing at, btw?

OK thanks so this proves it is actually the avail ring value.
