Summary:
Changeset 11070
- NEW: 32bit SMP HVM guest hard hangs XEN on boot  (failure.3)
- NEW: 64bit and 32bit UP HVM guest crashes XEN on boot (failure.4)
- NEW: 64bit SMP HVM guests crash on boot (failure.5)

Test Configuration:
Dell Precision WorkStation 380, Dual Core, 2GB, 3 SATA (Intel VT)
64bit XEN Hypervisor on a RHEL4U2 64bit root (/dev/sda)
32bit fully virtualized (HVM) guest RHEL4U2 256MB (/dev/sdb)
      pae=1(smp) pae=0(up), acpi=1, apic=1
      kernargs noapic
64bit fully virtualized (HVM) guest RHEL4U2 256MB (/dev/sdc)
      pae=1, acpi=1, apic=1
      kernargs noapic

Boot Tests:
Boot a fully virtualized (HVM) guest to the login prompt
Results are marked Pass|Fail where (n) points to a failure description

Regression Tests:
852 tests (851 ltp tests and one 30 minute user load test)
Tests are marked #Pass/#Fail where (n) points to a failure description

Failures:
 1. BUG 666: 32bit guests fail ltp gettimeofday02:
    "Time is going backwards"
 2. Multiple HVM guests (32/64 SMP) crash under load:
    32bit SMP guests fail various tests with:
    "Couldn't alloc shadow page!"
    "domain_crash_sync called from shadow.c:445"
 3. 32bit SMP HVM guests cause XEN to hard hang.
 4. 32bit and 64bit UP HVM guests when booted crash XEN:
    "CPU1802024 FATAL TRAP 14 (page fault), ERROR_CODE
     0000, IN INTERRUPT CONTEXT"
 5. 64bit SMP HVM guests crash on boot:
    "Unable to handle kernel paging request at
     ffffffff006c8a41 RIP: <ffffffff801112d8>
     {in_exception_stack+27} PML4 103027 PGD 0
