Yes.

Any way to do that with less performance impact than adding printks to 
what I presume is a quite-commonly-called method? This system is used by 
internal personnel; while its performance and uptime aren't critical, it 
would be a good thing if they weren't impacted more than necessary.

Should it be adequate to upgrade this DomU only, or is there cause to 
also upgrade the hypervisor and Dom0?

(I'm also building a kernel with debug symbols; I anticipate that this 
will let me get an annotated disassembled copy of the source in 
question, and thus figure out which line of source maps to the 
instruction offset from the top of the method we're in... at least, in 
theory).
