[Xen-devel] Testing nested virtualization on Intel CPUs



I am testing out nested virtualization on a Lenovo x220 (Intel
i7-2620M). I am running xen-unstable (23842:483c5f8319ad) and Linux
3.0 (Ubuntu 10.10).
I brought up a Centos 5.6 VM and installed Xen that is packaged with
it. I think it is a variant of 3.0. The CentOS Xen VM boots very
slowly but it does finally come up in to the nested Dom0. Now when I
do an "xm create" of an HVM domain I just get a blank sdl screen. I
don't even see the bios screen. Are there any more patches that I need
to be adding to get this to work?

I have also included some log output. Please let me know if you need
any other info.

Thanks,
AP
