I used wrong pattern for the issue on a previous series of tests on those CPUs in the middle of month, continuously respawning VMs when the real issue is hiding in *first* reboot events starting from the hypervisor reboot (or module load). So either it should be reproducible anywhere or this is not a hardware issue (or it is related to the mainboard instead of CPU itself :) ). -- 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
