Just some whitespace. Are you sure? Could you send a full xm dmesg log output? The crash is from a BUG() caused by a failing hypercall. Since you have compiled Xen with debug enabled, it should have printed something about why it was failing the hypercall. >>> (XEN) traps.c:413:d332 Unhandled invalid opcode fault/trap [#6] on >>> VCPU 0 [ec=0000] >>> (XEN) domain_crash_sync called from entry.S >>> (XEN) Domain 332 (vcpu#0) crashed on cpu#0: >>> (XEN) ----[ Xen-3.2.1-rc5 x86_64 debug=y Not tainted ]---- >>> (XEN) CPU: 0 >>> (XEN) RIP: e019:[<00000000c0103b55>] >> >> Could you decode this to see which function this corresponds to? > > I'd love to know how for future reference, but for now I've placed the > files here: > > http://www.theshore.net/~caker/xen/pvops-bug1/ Thanks, that's very interesting. I had a very similar crash in a current -rc kernel when running it under the Citrix XenServer product version of Xen, and I wasn't sure where to point fingers.
