kernel netfront: Too many frags in Xen VM
Posted on In QAWe set up Xen F19 VMs on a Xen 3.4.3 / 2.6.32.13 xenified kernel. Check here.). However, we find the Xen VM keeps reporting:
kernel netfront: Too many frags
and
skb rides the rocket
in the dmsg
.
This solves the problem (assume in physical server vif1.0 is for the eth0 on the VM):
On the VM:
# ethtool -K eth0 sg off
On the host (Xen Domain 0):
# ethtool -K vif1.0 tso off
# ethtool -K vif1.0 sg off
