Hello,

I just noticed that the "lshw" command gets stuck at the "DMI" stage
for me on all (three of) my Xen 4.x installs. Meanwhile the Xen
dmesg is filling with:

(XEN) mm.c:860:d0 Error getting mfn 1592 (pfn 601f) from L1 entry 
8000000001592625 for l1e_owner=0, pg_owner=32753
(XEN) mm.c:860:d0 Error getting mfn 1592 (pfn 601f) from L1 entry 
8000000001592625 for l1e_owner=0, pg_owner=32753

until I ctrl-c the lshw.

Searching for this I found this thread:

http://lists.xensource.com/archives/html/xen-devel/2010-10/msg00257.html

although that is discussing a boot failure (crash) which I am not
experiencing. Alan does mention having to patch lshw to have it
complete the DMI probe.

lshw works fine on my Xen 3.x installs.

Does this mean the bug is in lshw, or in Xen?

Cheers,
Andy
