I've encountered two problems booting a Linux 4.4 dom0 on recent stable xen 4.5 on VMware ESXi 5.5.0. One has the same "ata_piix: probe of 0000:00:07.1 failed with error -22" symptom discussed some time ago, and prevents the kernel from seeing any of the virtual IDE drives exposed by VMware. This problem is fixed by applying Stefano's patch (https://lkml.org/lkml/2016/4/20/345). Another problem occurs very early during boot: (XEN) Xen version 4.5.4-pre ( 4.5.4~pre-1skyport2) (eswierk@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx) (gcc (Debian 5.2.1-19.1skyport1) 5.2.1 20150930) debug=n Thu May 19 12:06:20 PDT 2016 (XEN) Bootloader: SYSLINUX 4.05 20140113 (XEN) Command line: xen console=com1,vga com1=115200 no-bootscrub dom0_mem=2048M,max:2048M ignore_loglevel (XEN) Video information: (XEN) VGA is text mode 80x25, font 8x16 (XEN) Disc information: (XEN) Found 1 MBR signatures (XEN) Found 1 EDD information structures (XEN) Xen-e820 RAM map: (XEN) 0000000000000000 - 000000000009f800 (usable) (XEN) 000000000009f800 - 00000000000a0000 (reserved) (XEN) 00000000000dc000 - 0000000000100000 (reserved) (XEN) 0000000000100000 - 00000000bfef0000 (usable) (XEN) 00000000bfef0000 - 00000000bfeff000 (ACPI data) (XEN) 00000000bfeff000 - 00000000bff00000 (ACPI NVS) (XEN) 00000000bff00000 - 00000000c0000000 (usable) (XEN) 00000000f0000000 - 00000000f8000000 (reserved) (XEN) 00000000fec00000 - 00000000fec10000 (reserved) (XEN) 00000000fee00000 - 00000000fee01000 (reserved) (XEN) 00000000fffe0000 - 0000000100000000 (reserved) (XEN) 0000000100000000 - 00000001c0000000 (usable) (XEN) ACPI: RSDP 000F6B80, 0024 (r2 PTLTD ) (XEN) ACPI: XSDT BFEF0F70, 0054 (r1 INTEL 440BX 6040000 VMW 1324272) (XEN) ACPI: FACP BFEFEE73, 00F4 (r4 INTEL 440BX 6040000 PTL F4240) (XEN) ACPI: DSDT BFEF1252, DC21 (r1 PTLTD Custom 6040000 MSFT 3000001) (XEN) ACPI: FACS BFEFFFC0, 0040 (XEN) ACPI: BOOT BFEF122A, 0028 (r1 PTLTD $SBFTBL$ 6040000 LTP 1) (XEN) ACPI: APIC BFEF1194, 0096 (r1 PTLTD APIC 6040000 LTP 0) (XEN) ACPI: MCFG BFEF1158, 003C (r1 PTLTD $PCITBL$ 6040000 LTP 1) (XEN) ACPI: SRAT BFEF1028, 0130 (r2 VMWARE MEMPLUG 6040000 VMW 1) (XEN) ACPI: WAET BFEF1000, 0028 (r1 VMWARE VMW WAET 6040000 VMW 1) (XEN) System RAM: 6143MB (6291004kB) (XEN) Domain heap initialised (XEN) Processor #0 7:15 APIC version 21 (XEN) Processor #2 7:15 APIC version 21 (XEN) Processor #4 7:15 APIC version 21 (XEN) Processor #6 7:15 APIC version 21 (XEN) Processor #8 7:15 APIC version 21 (XEN) Processor #10 7:15 APIC version 21 (XEN) IOAPIC[0]: apic_id 1, version 17, address 0xfec00000, GSI 0-23 (XEN) Enabling APIC mode: Flat.

(XEN) Resetting with ACPI MEMORY or I/O RESET_REG. The crash occurs in pat_init_cache_modes(), called by xen_start_kernel(). The pat value from MSR_IA32_CR_PAT is 0. Strangely, the same kernel and Xen boot just fine on VMware Fusion 8.1.1, even though the MSR is 0 there as well. Anyway, guessing that it's pointless to call pat_init_cache_modes() when the CPU doesn't support PAT, I added a check for cpu_has_pat. This resolves the problem on ESXi and doesn't seem to break real hardware, though I'm not sure how to verify PAT functionality. So this is just an RFC. diff --git a/arch/x86/xen/enlighten.c b/arch/x86/xen/enlighten.c index 9a29803..209f680 100644 --- a/arch/x86/xen/enlighten.c +++ b/arch/x86/xen/enlighten.c @@ -1633,8 +1633,12 @@ asmlinkage __visible void __init xen_start_kernel(void) * Modify the cache mode translation tables to match Xen's PAT * configuration. */ - rdmsrl(MSR_IA32_CR_PAT, pat); - pat_init_cache_modes(pat); + if (cpu_has_pat) { + rdmsrl(MSR_IA32_CR_PAT, pat); + pat_init_cache_modes(pat); + } else { + xen_raw_console_write("CPU does not support PAT\n"); + } /* keep using Xen gdt for now; no urgent need to change it */ --Ed _______________________________________________ Xen-devel mailing list Xen-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.xen.org/xen-devel
