Yes, sync_console helped quite a bit, now I get full dom0 panic message: [ 10.334800] vesafb: cannot reserve video memory at 0x0 [ 10.340009] vesafb: mode is 0x0x0, linelength=0, pages=0 [ 10.345515] Oops: divide error: 0000 [#1] SMP NOPTI [ 10.346503] CPU: 0 UID: 0 PID: 1 Comm: swapper/0 Not tainted 6.17.9-1.qubes.fc41.x86_64 #1 PREEMPT(full) [ 10.346503] Hardware name: Notebook V54x_6x_TU/V54x_6x_TU, BIOS Dasharo (coreboot+heads) v0.9.0 01/01/1970 [ 10.346503] RIP: e030:vesafb_probe.cold+0xd4/0x5fb [ 10.346503] Code: 08 75 1f 83 3d a8 8c 1d 02 00 75 16 48 c7 c7 90 4a fd 81 e8 8a ef f9 ff c7 05 d4 54 09 02 05 00 00 00 8b 05 c2 54 09 02 31 d2 <f7> 35 d2 54 09 02 8b 15 fc 54 09 02 48 89 c1 48 c1 e1 20 48 09 ca [ 10.346503] RSP: e02b:ffffc9004001fbb8 EFLAGS: 00010246 [ 10.346503] RAX: 0000000000000000 RBX: ffff888101d86f28 RCX: ffffffff823666e8 [ 10.346503] RDX: 0000000000000000 RSI: 0000000000000000 RDI: 0000000000000003 [ 10.346503] RBP: ffff88810197d400 R08: 0000000000000000 R09: 6c656e696c202c30 [ 10.346503] R10: 0000000000000030 R11: 203a626661736576 R12: 0000000000000000 [ 10.346503] R13: 0000000000000000 R14: 0000000000000000 R15: ffff888106351000 [ 10.346503] FS: 0000000000000000(0000) GS:ffff888cef7c1000(0000) knlGS:0000000000000000 [ 10.346503] CS: e030 DS: 0000 ES: 0000 CR0: 0000000080050033 [ 10.346503] CR2: ffffc900064ff000 CR3: 000000000222c000 CR4: 0000000000050660 [ 10.346503] Call Trace: [ 10.346503] <TASK> [ 10.346503] ? __pfx___device_attach_driver+0x10/0x10 [ 10.346503] platform_probe+0x39/0x70 [ 10.346503] really_probe+0xdb/0x340 [ 10.346503] ? pm_runtime_barrier+0x54/0x90 [ 10.346503] __driver_probe_device+0x78/0x110 [ 10.346503] driver_probe_device+0x1f/0xa0 [ 10.346503] __device_attach_driver+0x89/0x110 [ 10.346503] bus_for_each_drv+0x94/0xf0 [ 10.346503] __device_attach+0xaf/0x1b0 [ 10.346503] bus_probe_device+0x8d/0xa0 [ 10.346503] device_add+0x508/0x710 [ 10.346503] platform_device_add+0xed/0x250 [ 10.346503] sysfb_init+0x283/0x320 [ 10.346503] ? __pfx_sysfb_init+0x10/0x10 [ 10.346503] do_one_initcall+0x57/0x310 [ 10.346503] do_initcalls+0x1ef/0x240 [ 10.346503] kernel_init_freeable+0x187/0x210 [ 10.346503] ? __pfx_kernel_init+0x10/0x10 [ 10.346503] kernel_init+0x1a/0x140 [ 10.346503] ret_from_fork+0xf2/0x110 [ 10.346503] ? __pfx_kernel_init+0x10/0x10 [ 10.346503] ret_from_fork_asm+0x1a/0x30 [ 10.346503] </TASK> [ 10.346503] Modules linked in: [ 10.559786] ---[ end trace 0000000000000000 ]--- [ 10.564581] RIP: e030:vesafb_probe.cold+0xd4/0x5fb [ 10.569546] Code: 08 75 1f 83 3d a8 8c 1d 02 00 75 16 48 c7 c7 90 4a fd 81 e8 8a ef f9 ff c7 05 d4 54 09 02 05 00 00 00 8b 05 c2 54 09 02 31 d2 <f7> 35 d2 54 09 02 8b 15 fc 54 09 02 48 89 c1 48 c1 e1 20 48 09 ca [ 10.588833] RSP: e02b:ffffc9004001fbb8 EFLAGS: 00010246 [ 10.594255] RAX: 0000000000000000 RBX: ffff888101d86f28 RCX: ffffffff823666e8 [ 10.601622] RDX: 0000000000000000 RSI: 0000000000000000 RDI: 0000000000000003 [ 10.609000] RBP: ffff88810197d400 R08: 0000000000000000 R09: 6c656e696c202c30 [ 10.616378] R10: 0000000000000030 R11: 203a626661736576 R12: 0000000000000000 [ 10.623755] R13: 0000000000000000 R14: 0000000000000000 R15: ffff888106351000 [ 10.631136] FS: 0000000000000000(0000) GS:ffff888cef7c1000(0000) knlGS:0000000000000000 [ 10.639483] CS: e030 DS: 0000 ES: 0000 CR0: 0000000080050033 [ 10.645434] CR2: ffffc900064ff000 CR3: 000000000222c000 CR4: 0000000000050660 [ 10.652817] Kernel panic - not syncing: Fatal exception [ 10.653803] Kernel Offset: disabled (XEN) Hardware Dom0 crashed: 'noreboot' set - not rebooting. > > > It doesn't reach loading graphics driver in dom0, so I don't have > > anything interesting on VGA (the last output is about the kexec call > > done by Heads).

Hm, I do have that patch in 4.22 too, but maybe I failed at rebase... > If so, to compare apples > to apples the driver wants enabling/disabling consistently (via command > line option) for both runs. Since here booting just dom0 is enough, I don't need any of the qubes patches. So, now I tested vanilla 4.19 vs staging - both console logs at: https://gist.github.com/marmarek/e017f0a9ad3cc6ab2bac8849492c41a9 > And then "mwait-idle: lapic_timer_reliable_states ..." differ as well. > > Jan > > [1] https://lists.xen.org/archives/html/xen-devel/2026-04/msg00200.html -- Best Regards, Marek Marczykowski-Górecki Invisible Things Lab Attachment:
