Good day.

I'm testing live migration (infinitive migration in loop), and I found
sometimes in dmesg of guest machine (2.6.34-xen from SUSE) following
message:

AFAIK this message meaning underflow or overflow of ring buffer for
xenstore. But I do not understand consequences for domU... What happens
if ring buffer found over(under)flowed? Some device requests will be
dropped, or some response will be lost? Or dom0/domU kernel have some
kind of queue for those requests?
