Problems described in first parts of Debian's bug report was gone after update, although a problem with "pseudo-leak", explained in https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=767295#75 (and few following messages) still exists.
As far I understand second part of bugreport describes problems that leads to some inconvenient and doubtful messages during creating/rebooting domU's when memory balloning is disabled, but aren't very grave in general (although patches are available in Debian repository - as specific for glibc they are not pushed upstream, I suppose). In general, where balloning is disabled, kernel complains few (about twenty, to be honest) times during creating/restarting domU: xen:balloon: Cannot add additional memory (-17) Enabling balloning, for example by dom0_mem=1536M,max:2048M "fixes" problem, although it is may be troublesome in environments with very small memory amount assigned to dom0 (as stated in mentioned thread in Debian's bugzilla). ** Bug watch added: Debian Bug tracker #767295 http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=767295 -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1484682 Title: memory leak in xl To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xen/+bug/1484682/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
