While investigating why libvirt hasn't been succeeding very well on
merlot* I came across some things in the serial log which initially
struck me as odd, but which I suspect are nothing (or at least not
terribly relevant), if someone could confirm that would be great.

Firstly is:

Jun 22 12:41:09.633294 (XEN) microcode: CPU2 updated from revision 0x6000822 to 
0x6000832
Jun 22 12:41:09.665099 (XEN) microcode: CPU4 updated from revision 0x6000822 to 
0x6000832
Jun 22 12:41:09.729089 (XEN) microcode: CPU6 updated from revision 0x6000822 to 
0x6000832
Jun 22 12:41:09.793224 (XEN) microcode: CPU8 updated from revision 0x6000822 to 
0x6000832
Jun 22 12:41:09.857118 (XEN) microcode: CPU10 updated from revision 0x6000822 
to 0x6000832
Jun 22 12:41:09.921123 (XEN) microcode: CPU12 updated from revision 0x6000822 
to 0x6000832
Jun 22 12:41:09.985563 (XEN) microcode: CPU14 updated from revision 0x6000822 
to 0x6000832
Jun 22 12:41:10.049212 (XEN) microcode: CPU16 updated from revision 0x6000822 
to 0x6000832
Jun 22 12:41:10.121106 (XEN) microcode: CPU18 updated from revision 0x6000822 
to 0x6000832
Jun 22 12:41:10.185059 (XEN) microcode: CPU20 updated from revision 0x6000822 
to 0x6000832
Jun 22 12:41:10.249070 (XEN) microcode: CPU22 updated from revision 0x6000822 
to 0x6000832
Jun 22 12:41:10.313063 (XEN) microcode: CPU24 updated from revision 0x6000822 
to 0x6000832
Jun 22 12:41:10.393217 (XEN) microcode: CPU26 updated from revision 0x6000822 
to 0x6000832
Jun 22 12:41:10.457126 (XEN) microcode: CPU28 updated from revision 0x6000822 
to 0x6000832
Jun 22 12:41:10.521228 (XEN) microcode: CPU30 updated from revision 0x6000822 
to 0x6000832

i.e. only even numbered cpus are updated. (0 was done earlier in boot).
I suspect that the answer here is "hyperthreading", and the cpuinfo
shows all cpus have in fact been updated.

So I think that's just a red-herring.

The second thing is:
Jun 22 12:41:10.601103 (XEN) Brought up 32 CPUs
Jun 22 12:41:10.625270 (XEN) Testing NMI watchdog on all CPUs: 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 
8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 stuck

i.e. at least one CPU has issues with NMI watchdog (looking at other
runs it seems to vary between 29-31). Is this just that the NMI watchdog
doesn't deal well with so many pCPUs? Or is it a real issue?

Lastly the eventual "'0' pressed -> dumping Dom0's registers" thing only
seems to dump cpus 0..9 (inclusive). It seems to vary a bit. I suspect
this is another "didn't wait long enough" thing, possibly on the osstest
end.

Ian.
