Re: [Xen-devel] Re: BSOD "A clock interrupt was not recevied onasecondar
Alternative Viridian interface support was checked in. When enabled, it ought to be sufficient to disable these bugchecks. ‘viridian=1’ needs to be specified in the domain config file.

Andrew - you can run the "Novell Shim" which makes the hypervisor
conform to the Microsoft spec enough that the guest OSs will turn off
watchdog timeouts (0x101 BSoDs)...

All Microsoft 6.0 and beyond Operating Systems have a sense of

correctly
with SMP is to make Xen conform to Microsoft's hypervisor spec.
I vaguely recall there being a way to make xen "lie" to the OS about
the type of hypervisor, it might only be a feature on the commercial
citrix xenserver?
So basically there is no way to run Windows Vista or 2008 on Xen
without risk of a 101 BSOD under load?
If that is true then its a severe problem and Xen is useless for newer
MS OS's :(
Has anybody else had this problem and found a solution?

Hi,
When dom0 is under heavy load any Vista or Windows 2008 HVM's that
are
running and have multiple cpu's assigned often BSOD with code
0x00000101 "A clock interrupt was not recevied ona secondary
processor within the allocated time interval"
It only happens if the load in dom0 is high enough to make the mouse
pointer lagged, once the mouse fails to track in realtime the hvm's
start to bsod within a few seconds.
I have tried several versions of Xen including 3.2, 3.3 and 3.3.1
rc4,
and various kernels including the 2.6.18 xensource and 2.6.27-xen.hg.
Here is a example config from one of my vista hvms, is there a
timer/rtc setting that I need to add to avoid this problem?
import os, re
arch = os.uname()[4]
if re.search('64', arch):
arch_libdir = 'lib64'
else:
arch_libdir = 'lib'
kernel = "/usr/lib/xen/boot/hvmloader"
builder='hvm'
memory = 2048
name = "Vistax86"
uuid = "b7bd2f2f-169f-4789-8aee-eaa77c543c99"
vcpus=8
vif = [ 'mac=00:16:3e:7d:bc:b1' ]
disk = [ 'phy:/dev/vg_raptor/lv_vistax86,hda,w', ',hdc:cdrom,r' ]
device_model = '/usr/' + arch_libdir + '/xen/bin/qemu-dm'

I think this is a known issue which has incorrectly been marked as
FIXED in bugzilla:
http://bugzilla.xensource.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=1117
there is a second bug report of the same problem, this time with more
details:
http://bugzilla.xensource.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=1065
Is there a fix?
Andy
