Re: [Xen-devel] RE: Stability report GPLPV 0.11.0.308



Hello James,

Actually one other thing you could try is simply using the Windows
2003 version of the drivers. That uses ndis5 and scsiport instead
of ndis6 and storport. If that worked we could try running with
ndis5 + storport and see if that works okay. As long as they are
from the same patchlevel it shouldn't matter if you use one
compiled for windows 2008 and one for windows 2003 (it's possible
that it might matter but I can't think of anything).
I now compiled 0.11.0.312 with scsiport and ndis5 (and patched the
.inf file, deleted the [XenGplPv.NT$ARCH$.6.0] section). Test is now
running.

Crashed after 1-2 days, but actually I found that ndis5 of 0.11.0.213
has major differences from ndis5 of 0.11.0.312 so I am not sure what
that means?

The whole reason I am doing all the testing is because the net
performance of 0.11.0.213 is not good enough and 0.11.0.312 has near
native performance on gigabit links - but even the ndis5 driver of
0.11.0.312 has very good performance so it does not seem to be an NDIS 6
improvement.

Any news on your side?

Regards Andreas
