hi,

attached you find the xm dmesg output of my xen-unstable machine,
first domU starts correct, second/third crashes (see log).

dom0 and domU were both compiled with smp support (smt enabled) on a
dual xeon 2.8.

did i missed something at kernel configuration?



No. I reported this problem some time back and am still seeing it
daily: http://bugzilla.xensource.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=267



Sounds like a critical bug. Is anybody taking a look at this? BTW, is
this specific to PAE?
I've only seen it on a PAE enabled box.

To clarify a bit more, if I build Xen on the same machine without PAE enabled, I do not see the problem. Further, the xm-test failures are due to this problem:

              Platform | PASS | FAIL | XPASS | XFAIL |
---------------------+------+------+-------+-------+

x335sles9_pae4gb | 65 | 26 | 0 | 1 | <==============PAE enabled results

...
x335sles9_pae4gb | 87 | 2 | 1 | 0 | <========== Same machine, non-PAE.
