Re: VM in Xen 4.1; poor packet forwarding performance on xn0
Em 18/04/2014, às 11:57, seanr...@gmail.com seanr...@gmail.com escreveu: Hi there freebsd-xen, I tried first on freebsd-questions@ without success, so I thought to retry here. I run OpenVPN on a FreeBSD 10.0-Rp1 VM in Xen 4.1 (HVM). I am experiencing slow network performance on xn0 that seems to have developed after I upgraded to FreeBSD 10 (no other changes). I can only achieve about 0.5mbps through this interface when forwarding packets; packets in a single direction are fine (e.g; downloading to the VPS or pushing from the VPS) and clock in at many (10 usually) mbps. Interestingly, my identical VM (configuration managed centrally) running on Xen 3.4 (HVM) does *not* have this issue. I did a little debugging and here's what I've noticed: - Not related to OpenVPN, repro'd using ssh -d. - Slow VM has a very low rate of context switches (~250) while forwarding, fast VM has a lot more (~2000) sampled over 5 seconds using systat -v. - I can't repro a context switch limit (tried a limited fork() bomb). - Tried with *and* without LRO and TSO on xn0 (and all combinations of LRO and TSO on/off) I started digging into the Xen drivers but I realised I am not equipped to debug this. I'm looking for suggestions on what to check. My provider is offering to move me to an older Xen host but I'd like to see if I can help identify a bug either in my configuration or perhaps in FreeBSD's Xen code.

Re: FBSD 10.0-S (r261289M) under XenServer 6.2 - Stuck sshd in urdlck?

Ok, that's at the bottom of this email. Also, does this VM have some PCI-passthrough? Did you migrate it? The xl configuration file used to create the domain would also be interesting. VM has no passthrough (this is a completely separate system to the one I was doing the passthrough work on), and was created 'from new' - from Xen Center I did VM, new VM I used the Other install media template with 2 vCPU's and 2048Mb of RAM - and fed it the FreeBSD 10.0-R amd64 install ISO. Single GPT partition, ufs - and a small (2Gb SWAP partition). Once the system was running I installed subversion then did a svn checkout of 'stable' source - rebuilt the world/kernel / installed the kernel/world - and did the usual mergemaster updates. Also, could you try the same workload with a pristine GENERIC kernel? Ok - I'll leave this VM 'as-is' If I get time I'll setup two new VM's - a stock 10.0-R with stock GENERIC, and another one using the r261289M source from this machine, but stock GENERIC kernel (the only mods I'd made were the 'NO_ADAPTIVE_' changes as recommended by the xen man page). It may be a while before I know if sshd is going to get 'stuck' again - but I'll keep an eye on them. -Karl This problem seems to not be in virtualization, the FUG-BR are discussing this issue in SSH FreeBSD10. ___ freebsd-xen@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-xen To unsubscribe, send any mail to freebsd-xen-unsubscr...@freebsd.org
