Subject:   Strange error messages from xnb on dom0.  What do they mean?
Message-ID:  <202104261841.13QIfDMd005472@nfbcal.org>

	hello.  Occasionally I see messages like the following from my FreeBSD-12.2/dom0 machine.
Is this related to the issue of the NetBSD domu's seeing bursts of oversized packets, which I assume
is caused by packets getting sent from the dom0 to the domu in batches rather than one at a
time, each with an interrupt signal, or, the xen equivalent?

On the domu's I see:
xennet0: discarding oversize frame (len=1518)

I see the following messages on the dom0, but not necessarily at the same time as the above
messages appear in the domu's.

Any ideas?
-thanks
