yes, this is an issue with my patch :( All default values has to be 0, but only for the credit(2) scheduler cpu_weight must not. So I made a patch, which set a default of 256 when the cpu_weight isn't set and credit(2) is used and let it 0 when the scheduler sedf is used. Please try the attached patch and see if it solve this issue.
Dieter,

Thanks for the patch. However, I'd really rather avoid putting scheduler defaults in xl if we can at all avoid it. Defaults should be set in one place, and that should be in the scheduling code itself.

I think what we really want to do is is any of the parameters are set, after the domain is first created, to read the scheduling parameters for the domain (which will be the defaults), change the ones that are set in the config file, and then write the whole structure back. That shouldn't be too hard, as libxl__sched_set_params() is called after the domain itself is created; the main thing is how to tell libxl__sched_set_params() which parameters actually need to be set, and which should be left alone.

Are you up for doing that?  If not, I can put it on my to-do list.

Thanks,
 -George
