What: /sys/devices/*/xenbus/event_channels
Date: February 2021
Contact: Xen Developers mailing list <[email protected]>
Description:
Number of Xen event channels associated with a kernel based
paravirtualized device frontend or backend.
What: /sys/devices/*/xenbus/events
Date: February 2021
Contact: Xen Developers mailing list <[email protected]>
Description:
Total number of Xen events received for a Xen pv device
frontend or backend.
What: /sys/devices/*/xenbus/jiffies_eoi_delayed
Date: February 2021
Contact: Xen Developers mailing list <[email protected]>
Description:
Summed up time in jiffies the EOI of an interrupt for a Xen
pv device has been delayed in order to avoid stalls due to
event storms. This value rising is a first sign for a rogue
other end of the pv device.
What: /sys/devices/*/xenbus/spurious_events
Date: February 2021
Contact: Xen Developers mailing list <[email protected]>
Description:
Number of events received for a Xen pv device which did not
require any action. Too many spurious events in a row will
trigger delayed EOI processing.
What: /sys/devices/*/xenbus/spurious_threshold
Date: February 2021
Contact: Xen Developers mailing list <[email protected]>
Description:
Controls the tolerated number of subsequent spurious events
before delayed EOI processing is triggered for a Xen pv
device. Default is 1. This can be modified in case the other
end of the pv device is issuing spurious events on a regular
basis and is known not to be malicious on purpose. Raising
the value for such cases can improve pv device performance.
