Sorry, I just saw the mail
(in our side, the past week was a long public holiday).
It seems the issue hasn’t
been fixed till now? I can’t see why the lower-the-freq-of-vHPET
changeset should cause the issue…
I remember booting 32bit
SLES 10 SP1 RC2 HVM guest on 64bit Bensley host is ok, per some previous mail (pls
see the attachment for it).
Does this mean the issue
only happens to Unisys ES7000,
and doesn’t happen to Bensley?

Yes, I saved this output
from the 32-bit SMP (non-PAE) HVM when I ran with changeset 14756:

I cannot boot 32-bit SLES10 HVMs, SMP nor PAE, on
x86_64 SLES10 xen on Unisys ES7000/one with Intel processors. I initially
tried with HVM memory sizes of 2gb and 16gb, but when I give the HVMs only
512mb, they still do not boot. I have run both with the ES7000 configured
as 8x 32gb and 16x 64gb. The HVMs either hang in the graphical blue SUSE
Linux screen or get this kernel panic: Badness in smp_call_function at
arch/i386/kernel/smp.c:595.
At Keir’s suggestion, I used a binary search method to narrow
down changesets, and after building and testing multiple changesets I was able
to determine
When you get the ‘Badness in smp_call_function’ message, do you also get a
backtrace and/or stack dump?
