Hi,

I'm trying to get to the bottom of a SLES11 guest crash (stack trace
below). This is an early page fault on a 64-bit SLES11 SP0 guest, and
only appears in debug builds of Xen.

An automated git bisect run in xen.git pointed at the following commit.
I realise that this is a debug commit, and is therefore likely not the
culprit, but it probably exposes the real bug, which was hiding silently
before.

     x86: debugging code for testing 16Tb support on smaller memory systems

I wondered if anyone had advice on the likely cause, or how to go about
debugging from here? In particular, are there any bits of code that are
likely culprits, or commits that might be candidates? One option is to
rerun the bisect, and apply this debug patch on top of each point...
I'll investigate that in the absence of alternatives.

Andrew.
