Kernel load in Xen not correct
Last modified: 2005-12-20 20:51:43 UTC
Installing Xen from the scratch and booting into Xen seems to works. But on my system the processor load is not displayed corrrectly. The miminum load is 1.0 in dom0 (should be 0.0). Yet no other domain installed. Booting the same system with the normal kernel displays correct load values. System: 2.6.13-8-default (or -xen), processor: 6.11.1, Celeron 1200 MHz
For further information or test please contact me.
Hmm, it displays a load of 0 here. garloff@tpkurt:~ [0]$ uname -a Linux tpkurt 2.6.13-15-xen #1 Tue Sep 13 14:56:15 UTC 2005 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux garloff@tpkurt:~ [0]$ rpm -q xen xen-3.0_6715-2 garloff@tpkurt:~ [0]$ uptime 3:33am up 1 day 14:38, 6 users, load average: 0.01, 0.36, 14.15 Can you reproduce with the final release on SL10.0 (aka RC4)?

Does top show a process that eats the CPU? Any processes that that are in 'D' state?
Nothing special in top. That was the first thing I looked for. I did not look for any processes in state "D", but I think there wasn't. I do not have the machine any more, so I cannot reproduce the error at the moment. The answer time of the machine was OK, It responded fast. So I think only the conculation of the load number was incorrect somehow. Perhaps I find some time so build up the machine again.
SO, let's ignore this for now. Thanks for your report anyway.
