Hey,

I've recently tried installing Xen 4.1.1 on my server, which is
running ArchLinux. However, for some reason, when I start a domU with
HVM enabled, I get an immediate crash. Here is my setup:

===================
celestia ~ # uname -a
Linux celestia.q3k.org 3.0.0-rc6-q3k-xen #1 SMP Mon Jul 11 03:52:41
CDT 2011 x86_64 Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E5520 @ 2.27GHz GenuineIntel
GNU/Linux
===================

This kernel is based off the 3.0.0 sources, with the VGA patch applied.

===================
celestia ~ # zcat /proc/config.gz | grep XEN
CONFIG_XEN=y
CONFIG_XEN_DOM0=y
CONFIG_XEN_PRIVILEGED_GUEST=y
CONFIG_XEN_PVHVM=y
CONFIG_XEN_MAX_DOMAIN_MEMORY=128
CONFIG_XEN_SAVE_RESTORE=y
# CONFIG_XEN_DEBUG_FS is not set

CONFIG_XEN_NETDEV_BACKEND=y
CONFIG_INPUT_XEN_KBDDEV_FRONTEND=m
CONFIG_HVC_XEN=y
# CONFIG_XEN_WDT is not set
CONFIG_XEN_FBDEV_FRONTEND=m
CONFIG_XEN_BALLOON=y

CONFIG_XEN_GNTDEV=m
CONFIG_XEN_GRANT_DEV_ALLOC=m
CONFIG_XEN_PLATFORM_PCI=m
CONFIG_SWIOTLB_XEN=y
===================

Here is the domU I am trying to run:

===================
celestia vmconfs # cat ws2008.cfg
builder = "hvm"
kernel = "/usr/lib/xen/boot/hvmloader"
memory = '1024'
name = "testing"
vcpus=4
viridian = 1
pae=0
acpi=1
apic=1
disk = [
 Â'file:/home/xen/vms/xenwin2008/hdd.img,hda,w',
 Â'file:/home/xen/vms/xenwin2008/cd.iso,hdc:cdrom,r'
]
boot="dc"
on_poweroff = 'destroy'
on_reboot = 'restart'
on_crash = 'restart'
device_model = "/usr/lib/xen/bin/qemu-dm"
sdl=0
vnc=1
vncconsole=10
vnclisten="96.127.164.138"
===================

And here are the logs

===================

===================

And, possibly, most importantly:

===================
celestia vmconfs # xm dmesg
[...]
(XEN) io.c:194:d287 MMIO emulation failed @ 0018:9ffff: 00 b0 1a 80 c4 82
===================

The images specified in the config are accessible, and the ISO image
is bootable.

Could anyone give me any hints on what I might be doing wrong?

PS. I've sent this email from another email address a few minutes ago
- it probably got blocked. If it has not, ignore this one.
