Hi,

Yes, probably some kernel hacking option. I have enabled these options:

/boot/config-dom0 - Linux Kernel v2.6.32.24 Configuration

 Kernel hacking

[*] Enable __must_check logic
[*] Magic SysRq key
-*- Debug Filesystem
[*] Kernel debugging
[*]   Collect scheduler statistics
[*]   Collect kernel timers statistics
[*] Compile the kernel with frame pointers
[*] Sysctl checks
[*] Tracers  ---> [*]   Support for tracing block io actions
[*] Remote debugging over FireWire early on boot
[*] Enable verbose x86 bootup info messages
-*- Early printk
[*]   Early printk via EHCI debug port
[*] Check for stack overflows
[*] Write protect kernel read-only data structures
[*] Debug boot parameters
[*] Allow gcc to uninline functions marked 'inline'

All the other options are disabled. So it one/some of those that need to be enabled to get the kernel booting. Let me know if you need my config-file

Hi,

I just compiled Xen 4.0.0.1 with 2.6.32.24 and I stuck on this same
problem with my own compiled kernel. However the default kernel with
comes from "make world" boots fine. I traced the problem down to some
settings in kernel's menuconfig "Kernel hacking" menu. I dont exactly
know what the option needs to be enabled in the "Kernel hacking" to
get the kernel booting. In my own compiled kernels I have almost all
the options in that "Kernel hacking" menu disabled, and when I enabled
the same options in that menu that are in the default kernel which
comes when you do "make world" the system booted fine.

You probably know the problem already but I just thought that I should
share this information with you anyway.

No, that's interesting.  So some kernel debugging config option makes
the problem go away?  That gives me some way to possibly repro the problem.

I am afflicted by this problem for a long while now. Should look very
familiar to you. See
http://lists.xensource.com/archives/html/xen-devel/2010-09/msg00758.html


No solution till now.
Is it not fixed by current xen/stable-2.6.32.x kernels?
