This line:
[drm:radeon_ring_test] *ERROR* radeon: ring test failed
(sracth(0x15E4)=0xCAFEDEAD)
Is a pretty good pointer at what the fault is. If you look at git commit
93e7c3850b8431e19c9cba91413066bfd2360671 you will see the band-aid Jeremy added.
It looks though as if not all of the radeon drivers allocate their ring buffer
memory via
drm_sg_alloc calls thought. Not sure how the r100 (and the corresponding X
driver) does it.
The long/erro traceback about the HARDIRQ is a red-herring in this case.
Here is a couple of things that I would like you to try, if you can:
1). Pass in 'drm.debug=255' and send the output. It should have tons of extra
output.
2). Send in the Xorg.log (or whatever output the program in the userland that
starts the modesetting produces). I don't have much knowledge in how
modesetting works,
so this might require some digging.
2). When you boot the kernel without Xen, you don't see this error, right?
3) What does lspci -vvv output show for the video card in question?
