Thread-topic: Need debugging help : RE: [Xen-devel] Problems creating DomUs on the ES7000s
http://bugzilla.xensource.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=252

I have been looking into the problem. The alignment check is happening
on a "lock cmpxchg8b". Is it possible for ACs to happen when going
across page boundaries on cmpxchg8b in CPL 0? Is there any scenario when
ACs can happen with cmpxchg8b in CPL 0?

Thanks,
Aravindh

This is what I see on the serial console when the system dies.
