------- Comment #14 from s.groening@xxxxxxxxx  2010-05-26 23:47 -------
I have encountered this problem within the last week or so - with two different
kernels, both from Jeremy's git repo: 2.6.31.6 (Xen 3.4.2 stable) and 2.6.32.13
(Xen 4.0 stable) ... all on an Intel Xeon Q6600 Core 2 Quad w./ 8GB RAM.

I have run the pv-ops Dom0 setup on Debian Squeeze with the 2.6.31.6-kernel
without problems _AT ALL_ for quite a while, being very happy with both
performance and stability, at least up until two changes were made to my setup:

 1: I tried to autostart two domains though virsh XML-files, which caused my
system to crash with this exact problem occurring. Disabling the autostart of
my two domains stops the kernel from crashing the netback_uevent error
mentioned here, but after this, every domain start triggers the bug.

 2: I also tried enabling the APIC + ACPI options for a single domain after
first having disabled the autostart of my two domains mentioned above, and it
crashed with the same netback_uevent error as mentioned here.

Yesterday, I upgraded to Xen 4.0 upgrading my kernel to Jeremy's 2.6.32.13
kernel and this does not fix anything. Both domain XML-files have been reverted
completely as well as, but with no luck! Now it just crashes on every DomU-boot
...

Could Xen for some exotic reason keep track of what was going on the last time
a domain was loaded, since even my Xen .cfg-files produce the same error now,
which they've never done before the two above mentioned experiments?

Here's my Xen .cfg-file:

# PyGrub
bootloader="/usr/bin/pygrub"
memory = 1024
name = "sso"
vcpus = 1
vif = [ '' ]
disk = [ 'phy:xen_domains/stable,xvda1,w','phy:/dev/sdc1,xvdb1,w' ]
vfb = [ 'type=vnc' ]
on_poweroff = 'destroy'
on_reboot   = 'restart'
on_crash    = 'restart'
