           Summary: Xen 3.3.1 and infinite loop on X48 MB
           Product: Xen
           Version: unstable
          Platform: x86-64
        OS/Version: Linux-2.6
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal

Hi !

I had what seems to be a bug with vt-d on xen 3.3.1 on a C2SBX+ supermicro MB
(vt-d activated), CPU Q9550.
When I boot on Xen I can see these two lines in xm dmesg :

(XEN) Cannot handle page request order 0!
(XEN) Failed to parse ACPI DMAR.  Disabling VT-d.

Xen does start OK, excepting that vt-d isn't working.
I digged as deep as my knowledge allowed me to do, so I saw :
In the dmar.c file (xen/drivers/passthrough/vtd/) there is an infinite loop on
line 460 while. The variables tested don't grow, so it loops until the heap is
full, then elegantly unhook and continue. 

I would be pleased to collaborate to the resolution of this bug and is at
disposal for any more information.

Nicolas Frey
