Hi,
I'm running a Xen-3.2 Dom0 (Ubuntu 8.04 LTS, kernel 2.6.24) which is
hosting several DomUs. One of them is a debian/unstable and I'm trying to
run the latest -git version of Linus' tree. However, I wasn't able to test
for a while and I noticed just now that I cannot boot 2.6.32-rc1 any more,
2.6.31 (release) was booting fine. Unfortunately, "xm create sid.cfg -c"
just says "Domain started", but then "xm list" just shows the DomU in "p"
or in "b" state, and the console ("-c") isn't attached either, so I don't
really know where the DomU stops (or panics). However, I was able to
bisect it, I hope the bisection makes any sense:

Version numbers and more for both the domU and dom0 are on:

Only the "Merge branch x86-platform-for-linus" pops out
where a lot of x86 changes have been merged, but I have no
idea how to bisect within a "single" change.
Please advise.
Thanks,
Christian.

My bisection was one iteration short, here's the full one, which confirms

Yes, that is indeed a likely suspect. Is Xen compiled with DEBUG=y?
Does anything appear on the Xen console (xm dmesg)?

Is there any way I can bisect this any further, i.e. which change of this
merge is causing this?
> Is Xen compiled with DEBUG=y?
Hm, I doubt that the "stock" Ubuntu Xen packages are compiled with DEBUG
flags. I've put the .config of the running Dom0 kernel here:
http://nerdbynature.de/bits/2.6.32/dom0/
> Does anything appear on the Xen console (xm dmesg)?
Oh, I totally forgot about "xm dmesg", it's on the URL above too. I don't
see any timestamps in "xm dmesg", so I guess I'll have to try again with
"xm dmesg --clear" inbetween boots.
Thanks,
Christian.

Did that - when I boot a working kernel (2.6.31), "xm dmesg" prints
nothing but a newline. When I boot 2.6.31-rc1, this happens:

The load of the Dom0 with the panicked DomU "running" higher than
usual (3-4 instead of ~0) and xenstored is spinning and waiting for
(causing?) disk I/O. This is not the case when the DomU is runing just
fine. I didn't strace xenstored yet, because I don't want to risk
killing the whole Xen box.

Hm, sounds like a xenstored bug, or something is just pounding on it.
Are there any other domains running, or other busy processes?

The value is always ffffffff812c50ad, gdb says:

Yes, there's another domU running. But the high load and xenstored
spinning is only happening when I try to start the domain with this
2.6.32-rc kernel.

OK, I can repro this here and I'm looking into it. This particular
crash has been reported before on other kernels, but it seems more
easily triggered in this kernel.

That seems unlikely to be related (or a secondary effect of having a
domain crash).

Subject: [PATCH] xen: set up mmu_ops before trying to set any ptes
xen_setup_stackprotector() ends up trying to set page protections,
so we need to have vm_mmu_ops set up before trying to do so.
Failing to do so causes an early boot crash.

I see the patch made it into mainline already[0], so I just tried the
latest git checkout from Linus' tree and the DomU is booting now, with no
other ill effects afaict.
Thanks so much for the quick fix!
