RE: [Xen-devel] XEN Panic with VT-d support enabled on Xeon E55xx platform

Here  the IQT is such a big number 0x20... this seems pretty strange.

Hi François,
And, could you please try the xen parameter "iommu=no-intremap" ? -- If you 
still see the panic, please  also add the parameter "nosmp" to see if  there 
would any change.
We don't have the same host at hand. :-(  So we need try these on your host.
BTW, can you boot the same host using the latest native linux-2.6.29-rc8 when 
you iommu_intel=on and interrupt remapping is enabled?

PS, what's your BIOS version and date -- could you try to find the latest BIOS 
for the host? I personally tend to think this is a BIOS issue.

Thanks,
-- Dexuan

Hi Francois,

Do you have this problem all the times? Can you please grab some logs 
and send them to me? The dmesg from a native kernel if you can't boot up 
any version of Xen, and the whole Xen hypervisor log would help us to 
figure out the problem.

Thanks,
Yu
