Thread-topic: VMX status report 12591:7826e5482d42 with BLOCK issue
We have tested the latest xen on VT platform with Intel 915/E8500
chipset.  Here is the test summary:

New issues:
==========================
1). [Block issue] IA32/PAE: Booting dom0 failed in IA32 and PAE
platform. The console log is the following,
NET: Registered protocol family 17
Using IPI No-Shortcut mode
Freeing unused kernel memory: 188k freed
Kernel panic - not syncing: Attempted to kill init!
 (XEN) Domain 0 crashed: rebooting machine in 5 seconds.

2) In x86 64 bits mode, 64 bits UP Linux VMX could not boot successfully

Old issues:
==========================
1).In x86 64 bits mode: Base kernel Linux guest OS crash, and "xm dmesg"
complains:
(XEN) x86_emulate.c:1224:d166 Access faulted on page boundary
(cr2=ffffffff80101000,ea=80101004).
(XEN) x86_emulate.c:461:d166 Instr: 48 c7 05 8d 0b fe ff 00 00 00 00 eb
2e 48 b8 ff
....
(XEN) sh error: sh_remove_shadows(): can't find all shadows of mfn a396e
(shadow_flags=00001000)
(XEN) domain_crash called from common.c:2103
(XEN) Domain 166 (vcpu#0) crashed on cpu#0:

2). In x86 64bits mode, 64bit vista VMX shows a blue screen when vcpus=2


Bugs have been fixed:
=========================
1). IA32E: With ACPI=1, Linux guest OS will stop at some place during
the process of booting bug has been fixed.
2). IA32E: All 32 bit SMP Windows VMX domains, 32bit UP Vista, 64bit
UP/SMP Windows VMX domains crash bug has been fixed.


Details;
==========================
