The reason is how the credit is caculated. Although the 3 HVM domains is pinned
to 2 PCPU and share the 2 CPUs, they will all get 2* 300 credit when credit
account.
That means the I/O intensive HVM domain will never be under credit, thus it will
preempt the CPU intensive whenever it is boost (i.e. after I/O access to QEMU),
and
it is set to be TS_UNDER only at the tick time, and then, boost again.
I suspect that the real reason you're having trouble is that pinning and
the credit mechanism don't work very well together. Instead of pinning,
have you tried using the cpupools interface to make a 2-cpu pool to put
the VMs into? That should allow the credit to be divided appropriately.
I have a quick look in the code, and seems the cpu pool should not help on such
situation. The CPU poll only cares about the CPUs a domain can be scheduled,
but not about the credit caculation.
With cpupools you avoid the pinning. This will result in better credit
calculation results.
