This is my recovery function, which eip points to when the new domain is
started:

static void recover(void)
{
    __cli();
    HYPERVISOR_stack_switch(__KERNEL_DS, current->thread.esp0);
    asm volatile("addl $0x0, -4(%%eax)" : :"eax"(current->thread.esp0));
    while(1) HYPERVISOR_console_write("alive",5);

    ...

I touch the ring1 stack to make sure it is writeable (due to my
migration hacks it may not always be).

The output on the serial looks like below. The first four lines are
printed by my version of Xen as a response to SCHEDOP_exit:

exit dom 41 : esp1 c3a96000, ss 00000821
eip c00b5b6d esp c3a95ed8  eflags 296

Killing domain 42
Releasing task 42

As you can see, the crash is not happening in direct response to some
action in the domain, but rather as an effect of something happening
outside. I was speculating that perhaps I need to re-register for the
timer interrupt, or that the __cli() does not prevent Xen from trying to
deliver them?

Btw, the value of 'current' checks out, and is equal to the value before
migration.

best,
Jacob
