I previously had the pv_ops dom0 2.6.31.6 kernel built and running on my

Gerry,

Can you attach your .config file ? I am not seeing it anywhere in the
thread. Also is this x86_64 or i386 build? If it is i386 do you have
CONFIG_NUMA enabled? If so, what happens if you disable that?

Can you also tell me which Phenom it is? 940?


Konrad, I attached my .config file and /proc/cpuinfo.  The build was
x86_64.  The cpu is AMD Phenom II x4 940.
When I use your .config I get these:

Is this about the same thing you see? (the calltrace being of interest
here).

The screen output goes by so fast I cannot tell if this call trace is in it. I'm still waiting for a serial card to show up so I can capture the output. When I boot the 2.6.32.10 kernel under Xen pv_ops dom0 it will either start showing "soft lockup" bugs or it just hangs after XENBUS: Unable to read cpu state. If I boot the 2.6.32.10 kernel without Xen then it just hangs - no output at all.
