Hi Fenghua/Aron
This issue should be caused by mismatch of xen and xenlinux's Cset. Xen's version
should be xen-unstable.hg's Cset 10314, but xenlinux not based xen-unstalbe.hg's
10314 and seems that it based xen-ia64-unstable.hg's Cset 10314. If so, it will cause
unpredictable aftermath. The obvious phenomena is that one page of xen0's kernel code
was flushed and triggered breakfault at last. Seems we should rebase linux-2.6-xen.patch
to xen-unstalble's Cset 10314 first?
Thanks & Best Regards

Hi, Xiantao,
Could you try to reproduce the issue and fix it today? Please update us the
status then we can follow up. I think I saw this kind of issue (invalid
hypercalls) at the very beginning. The issue was gone after rebuilding the
xen/kernel rpms or updating xen/kernel rpms.
Thanks.

Well, this is mixed news, but it is all I have at the
moment...
I updated fedora-kernel-ia64 today. It builds and you can
find the new rpms in my yum repository.
However it doesn't boot. The kernel attempts to make
invalid hypercalls. I have not looked closely yet and don't
know the root cause of the problem.
If you would be willing to test and debug those rpms, that
would be fantastic. Even though it doesn't boot at the
moment, I am going to create an RFC patchset for Red Hat to
get comments for the moment. I plan to send that out
tomorrow morning.
Best regards,
Aron
