Re: [Xen-devel] Kernel panic on Xen virtualisation in Debian



Hi,

few months later Ingo decided again to give it a try as he really
doesn't want to keep ipv6 disabled in 2016.
He tried Xen 4.8 - which didn't help, the crash reappeared.
He then managed to build Xen with debug=y and soon it crashed with the
following output, which looks a little bit longer than without debug:

http://paste.debian.net/895464/

If this still doesn't help, we would really appreciate more information
on how to do proper debugging, the information we found online is either
very old, confusing - or it's hidden very good?

Andreas.
