Hi Yang:
  I could boot successfully (with xen), either with my current BIOS
(version A15) or prevous one (A00) on condition of the latest xen code
base (4.4-unstable).
  but I have problem with xen-4.3.0 when using old BIOS (version A00)
with VT-D enabled. if I diable VT-D, the system can boot
successfully.
   I'd consider this is hardware issue(BIOS, motherboard), rather than
the software (Xen side).
  so, I would rather not to dig further
  Thanks.

Dennis Lan (dlan)
