Thread-topic: [Xen-devel] PaX Security w/ Kernel.org DomU 2.6.31.7
I've put some xen_raw_printk statements in xen_setup_kernel_pagetable, and I'm 
not seeing the output on the console, even when I use on_crash = 'preserve'.  
So the crash may be happening sooner than that.  I've also enabled domU crash 
dumps in xend, but when this crash occurs, the core file is 0 bytes and labeled 
'-incomplete'.  Could the crash be happening too early to get a core dump?  
Also, is there anything like ksymoops which I can use to interpret the stack 
trace and find the function where the crash is occurring?

Thanks, 

John A.
