To make the xen-testvm build I need a newer version of type-conv and sexplib than is currently in trusty. Unfortunately however 'oasis' in Trusty upstream depends on 'liboasis-ocaml-dev' in upstream...

Installing the SM code in the standard python place is probably the right thing to do but xapi now fails to find them on CentOS in /usr/lib/xapi/sm. We need to...

In a XenServer .iso configuration we keep domain 0 small and don't include it in DMC (ballooning/squeezed) calculations. We do this by setting VM.memory_dynamic_min = VM.memory_dynamic_max like this: ``` [root@st28...

TCP: avoid stall with larger MSS

(I'm not an expert on this so I might have misunderstood something!) If the connection requests a large MSS > 16k, for example to exploit a large MTU, then writes...

TCP: don't hardcode a maximum write of 4000 bytes

This allows larger MTUs to be used, which helps when there is large per-packet overhead. For example - qemu when using the socket network device - Apple virtualization.framework's [VZFileHandleNetworkDeviceAttachment](https://developer.apple.com/documentation/virtualization/vzfilehandlenetworkdeviceattachment?language=objc) both...

Fix "Access is Denied" error on windows (with lock file)
