Francois,
Thank you for the log.
(XEN) [VT-D]iommu.c:1237:d32767 domain_context_mapping:PCI: bdf = 0:1d.0
Did you see 1 second delay after above line was printed? Or the system
got panic immediately following it?
(XEN) DMAR_IQA_REG = 7f79d000
(XEN) DMAR_IQH_REG = 0
(XEN) DMAR_IQT_REG = 20
(XEN)
(XEN) ****************************************
(XEN) Panic on CPU 0:
(XEN) queue invalidate wait descriptor was not executed

(XEN) Reboot in five seconds...
