Re: [Xen-devel] 2.6.28 64-bit domU not booting

Hi,

This is indeed a very strange problem. I just disabled _everything_ in the kernel menuconfig. No drivers, no filesystems, no nothing. I even disabled all in processor types and features.

Still the same error message. So it's probably a bug or something because its not just working no matter what options are enabled/disabled in kernel.

Hi,

I have now upgraded to the latest Xen with debug=y and I dont still get any specific error messages or how do I use the debug?

Looks like it is crashing really very early before even earlyprintk. I
guess you need to decode the RIP and any likely looking return addresses
on the stack manually as I described in a previous mail.

Ian.
In xm dmesg I have now this:

No it does not print anything, just disappears immediately.

This is what I get in xm dmesg after trying to launch the domU with 2.6.28

Since they aren't huge please just paste the messages inline or attach

Looks like a hypercall has failed and the kernel has done a BUG():

What does ffffffff8020a7aa correspond to in your kernel? Do any of the
other values on the stack correspond to interesting functions? I usually
pipe such stack traces into "| gdb-disas vmlinux" (attached, needs
kernel with debug info), of course it would be better to update to 3.3.1
final and build with debugging enabled to see the actual stack trace
from the domU kernel.

Hi,

I don't have the opportunity of rebuilding my hypervisor right now, but
here is the .config:

http://pastebin.com/m181cf183

Is there something wrong with the config or am I missing something there?
No I think your config is ok, I successfully built and booted 2.6.28 as
a 64 bit domU on my test system using it. My command line was
"root=/dev/xvda1 ro 4 console=hvc0 earlyprintk=xen"

Do you get anything on the Xen console (xm dmesg) when you try to start
the guest?

Hi,

Im using vanilla 2.6.28 kernel from kernel.org and when I try to boot my domU with it, it just disappears without any error or warning.
Can you build a debug=y hypervisor and add earlyprintk=xen to the domU
command line?

I have double checked that I have all the necessary options enabled on my kernel config.
Can you supply the config pls.

Ian.
