OK, that makes sense --- by that time VCPUs have already been registered. What I don't understand though is why resume doesn't fail every time --- xen_vcpu and xen_vcpu_info should be different practically always, shouldn't they? Do you observe successful resumes when the hypercall fails?

Right, that sounds like it should work.
