Re: [Xen-devel] Floating Point Exception when compiling w/ gcc

I found a floating-point bug in xen-unstable, which, since I don't know
what causes it, might also be present in xen 2.0.4. (See thread
"reproducable data corruption in xen-unstable".)
HOWEVER, I did create a workaround patch, which effectively solves the
problem for me. Remember to apply this patch both to xen0 and xenU
kernels.
I'd like to get to the bottom of this problem. I've checked in some
cleanups to FPU
code in both -testing and -unstable trees (the cleanups are
particularly extensive
in the unstable tree). Can you see if the problem still occurs? If it
does, it would be
useful to see at task-switch time, where you see that TS is incorrectly
cleared, whether
Xen per-domain flags EDF_GUEST_STTS and EDF_USEDFPU are true or false.
You'll have to hack in a call-down into Xen to print out the flags'
status -- perhaps
hack into the 'xen_version' hypercall?
