Thread-topic: [Xen-devel] RE: kernel panic when enable x2apic
hi Jan, weidong is looking into this issue. It is interesting is that, he can 
reproduce this issue in an older changeset in his box. So I am not sure whether 
there has another issue in my box. We will let you know ASAP when we get 
result. 

best regards
yang
