Could you try to create and start a vm with plain xm tools, without the help of libvirt based solutions, maybe your libvirt version doesn't know how to use the xen 4.0 utils or the pvops kernel?

I could be wrong, but this doesn't appear to be a kernel problem. Especially if xm info is working, so the xen service has started aleardy.

Did you ever have a working Xen setup (kernel, hypervisor, and tools) that was able to create guests?

If so what (if any) changes have you made to your Xen tools (e.g: xm or xl)?

-M

No
I did not made any changes to any tools xm or any other things.I compiled a kernel from scratch and xen-4.0 and the rebooted my machine with an expectation of creating guests and that is where I got above problems.In any case I was not able to create guests.
