First, thank you for replying! Very much appreciated! :)

I did skim your emails. But the oops was happening in memcpy+0x6 which
indicated it came back to the origin question why would it got an
exception there.

Just by staring at the code doesn't get me anywhere. Without a concrete
reproduction of the issue, I'm afraid I can't provide more input here.

Well, from my point of view, it happens quite often when accessing the server via SSH. For example today it crashed when I wanted to add something and after I clicked into putty and typed the first char. In another putty, where I have my netconsole log open, I instantly saw the oops.

But what exactly causing these kinds of reboots, I'm clueless as you too. Only that I do experience far more frequent crashes when accessing the server from workplace via putty on Windows than via SSH on OSX or Debian Linux.

There are several moving parts:
0. Hardware
1. Xen hypervisor
2. Dom0 kernel
Your report and the debian report suggested that Dom0 kernel is less
likely to be the culprit because you've tried different Dom0 kernels.

As just written in the other mail, I already tried kernel 4.5 from backports. Still crashing.

As for Xen, not sure if you would be up for trying a debug build from
source tree. That would help provide information on whether this is a
bug in Xen or not.

Will try to build from Debian source, but how to enable debug build?
