[Xen-devel] Re: SMP dom0 with 8 cpus of i386
For me the current unstable tree is not working with 8 cpu and SMP
dom0 on a IA32 server. I found that this patch
http://xenbits.xensource.com/xen-unstable.hg?cmd=changeset;
node=a0b4156cc0ce4e6495cfa316c5383ee2be81c22f has introduced some
issue. I also see same issue if I pass maxcpus=4 option in the
hypervisor command line.
The errors you see with the patch reverted, the fact you can reproduce
by changing maxcpus, and the also because the patch itself is pretty
benign, all these problems must be caused by some underlying memory
corruption.
One possibility is that it's due to my fiddling with the domain 0
memory map (I now free pseudophys range 0-1MB to the linux memoy
allocator, which we didn''t previously do). This might mean that we're
now allocating memory that gets scribbled on....
It might be worth explicitly unmapping the low pseudophys 1MB, not free
it to the memory allocator, and then see if you can boot dom0. Then we
can see if we have any code paths that go straight at low memory, which
is a bug on xenlinux.

After reverting the patch, SMP dom0 can boot with 8 cpus with the 6453
release from the xen-unstable.
I see these errors while booting the SMP dom0 kernel.
