I've tested this on some physical machines (Dell, HP, and SuperMicro servers) as well as within a KVM virtual machine but I get the same boot error each time. It occurs with Xen 4.5 and Linux 3.17-4.0.x. Xen 4.5.1-rc1 fails in the same way. I've opened a Red Hat Bug[2] as well as a Xen bug[3] on it. The code within free_domheap_pages() hasn't changed much since late 2014 so I'm not sure if that's the culprit. Does anyone have any suggestions on how to debug it further? Thanks in advance!
