I get the same Xen WARN messages using the current pvops/xen-next with
xen-unstable, here's the complete list for one boot, grep'd for WARN:
(XEN) Xen WARN at msi.c:636
(XEN) Xen WARN at msi.c:649
(XEN) Xen WARN at msi.c:636
(XEN) Xen WARN at msi.c:649
(XEN) Xen WARN at msi.c:656

(XEN) Xen WARN at msi.c:636
(XEN) Xen WARN at msi.c:649

(XEN) Xen WARN at msi.c:656
The complete boot seq is attached.
I do get a login at the end of the boot seq though.
My situation goes pear shaped when I try start a pv domU. The dom0
locks up after printing this on the console:
(XEN) tmem: all pools frozen for all domains
(XEN) tmem: all pools thawed for all domains
(XEN) tmem: all pools frozen for all domains
(XEN) tmem: all pools thawed for all domains
mapping kernel into physical memory
about to get started...
then prints these once a minute:
[ 589.490894] BUG: soft lockup - CPU#0 stuck for 61s! [swapper:0]
The xen console is still active and I can generate a diag dump, also attached.
This dom0 lockup behavior started with pv-ops 2.6.32.21, all the way
to .24, rendering the later pvops kernels unusable for dom0.
The 2.6.32.18 kernel is the last one that functioned as a dom0.
This behavior is consistent on platforms, HP proliant 380DL G6, and
G7, as well as i7 supermicros.
