commit 2654ff974a43c16f677dcd63303b09f527285fbf Author: Andrew Cooper <andrew.cooper3@xxxxxxxxxx> AuthorDate: Wed Jun 25 10:00:25 2025 +0100 Commit: Andrew Cooper <andrew.cooper3@xxxxxxxxxx> CommitDate: Wed Jun 25 17:54:41 2025 +0100 x86/boot: Improve paging mode diagnostics in create_dom0() I was presented with this: (XEN) NX (Execute Disable) protection active (XEN) d0 has maximum 416 PIRQs (XEN) (XEN) **************************************** (XEN) Panic on CPU 0: (XEN) Error creating d0: -95 (XEN) **************************************** which is less than helpful. It turns out to be the -EOPNOTSUPP from shadow_domain_init(). The real bug here is create_dom0() unconditionally assuming the presence of SHADOW_PAGING. Rework it to panic() rather than choosing a dom0_cfg which is guaranteed to fail. This results in: (XEN) NX (Execute Disable) protection active (XEN) (XEN) **************************************** (XEN) Panic on CPU 0: (XEN) Neither HAP nor Shadow available for PVH domain (XEN) **************************************** which is rather more helpful.
