Hi,

The "xm sched-credit" command has no checking function for 
a value of its "weight" and "cap" option.  I tested them with 
wrong values and the results were as follows.

Weight option:
 # xm list
 Name                              ID Mem(MiB) VCPUs State  Time(s)
 Domain-0                           0      873     2 r-----    65.0
 vm1                                1      128     1 -b----     0.3
 # xm sched-credit -d vm1
 {'cap': 0, 'weight': 256}
 # xm sched-credit -d vm1 -w -1
 # xm sched-credit -d vm1
 {'cap': 0, 'weight': 65535}
 # xm sched-credit -d vm1 -w 0
 # xm sched-credit -d vm1
 {'cap': 0, 'weight': 65535}
 # xm sched-credit -d vm1 -w -2
 # xm sched-credit -d vm1
 {'cap': 0, 'weight': 65534}
 # xm sched-credit -d vm1 -w 65536
 # xm sched-credit -d vm1
 {'cap': 0, 'weight': 65534}
 # xm sched-credit -d vm1 -w 65537
 # xm sched-credit -d vm1
 {'cap': 0, 'weight': 1}

Cap option:
 # xm list
 Name                              ID Mem(MiB) VCPUs State  Time(s)
 Domain-0                           0      873     2 r-----    73.3
 vm1                                1      128     1 -b----    25.4
 # xm sched-credit -d vm1
 {'cap': 0, 'weight': 256}
 # xm sched-credit -d vm1 -c -1
 # xm sched-credit -d vm1
 {'cap': 0, 'weight': 256}
 # xm sched-credit -d vm1 -c -2
 # xm sched-credit -d vm1
 {'cap': 65534, 'weight': 256}
 # xm sched-credit -d vm1 -c 101
 # xm sched-credit -d vm1
 {'cap': 101, 'weight': 256}

this patch are as follows.
