Mark, can you confirm that this is the same as either of the issues reported by Fabian?

The best way to debug such issues is to use a serial console - if you're using libvirt, that should already be available to the guest and you just need to add "console=ttyS0" to the kernel command line. > > Yes.

Hmm, I'm not sure why you think that ... the pvmmu issue had a very specific kernel oops signature, right? https://bugzilla.redhat.com/480822 > Mark, is the fix part of recent FC11 kernels? If you mean the flush_lazy_mmu_mode() fix, then yep it first appeared in v2.6.29-rc5-git1: http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=commitdiff;h=4f06b0436b Cheers, Mark. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe kvm" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
