RE: [Xen-devel] RE: [Xen-users] Xen in a 32 way system



The line you have the BUG in is a VCPUOP_initialize, which ends up in
.../xen/common/domain.c: do_vcpu_op(), where it does essentially the
first thing is a check:
        if ((vcpuid < 0) || (vcpuid >= MAX_VIRT_CPUS))
                return -EINVAL;

And I think this check will fail if vcpuid is 32, unless MAX_VIRT_CPUS
is not the standard value in . RSI is 32 (0x20)

As per this code:
ffff830000106d8c:       83 fe 1f                cmp    $0x1f,%esi
ffff830000106d8f:       41 89 f4                mov    %esi,%r12d
ffff830000106d92:       49 89 d5                mov    %rdx,%r13
ffff830000106d95:       48 8b 58 10             mov    0x10(%rax),%rbx
ffff830000106d99:       48 c7 c0 ea ff ff ff    mov
$0xffffffffffffffea,%rax
ffff830000106da0:       0f 87 9d 01 00 00       ja     ffff830000106f43
<do_vcpu_op+0x1f3>

So it seems like you're trying to start MORE than 32 CPUS to me... Don't
know why... Or is this check bogus? It doesn't look bogus to me... 

By the way, this is a "bug" in XEN-code inside the linux-kernel, so it's
not a because of the general 2.6.16.13 kernel code, and I suspect you'd
hit the same thing with a slightly earlier kernel - although this code
is something I haven't looked much at before - maybe it silently ignored
error-returns from this call before...
