Can you run it again with this, on top of the previous patch, please ?

Sure, the new output of xl -vvv create -F domain is again attached to
this e-Mail.

Sorry for the delay replying.  I have been ill :-(.
Sorry to hear that. Though I noticed your absence from the list I simply assumed that you were off on vacation. In any case good to see you back.

<NOTE: at this point a 10s pause happens>
libxl: error: libxl_device.c:1134:libxl__wait_for_backend_deprecated: Backend 
/local/domain/0/backend/pci/4/0 not ready (state 7)
libxl: error: libxl_device.c:1138:libxl__wait_for_backend_deprecated: FE 
/local/domain/4/device/pci/0 state 6
libxl: debug: libxl_pci.c:204:libxl__device_pci_remove_xenstore: pci backend at 
/local/domain/0/backend/pci/4/0 is not ready
libxl: error: libxl_pci.c:1250:do_pci_remove: xc_domain_irq_permission irq=16

So the backend here is in state 7 (Reconfiguring), but the frontend is
in state 6 (Closed).  I think this is a bug in pciback.

I looked at drivers/xen/xen-pciback/xenbus.c in Linux 3.13 and found
xen_pcibk_frontend_changed which seems to do roughly what I would
expect.

Has this changed at some point ?

Atom, what kernel are you using ?
All the error messages stem from kernel 3.11.7. In the meantime 3.13.2 became stable for gentoo and I installed that a few days ago. I have not run the debug output yet or timed the shutdown process, but there's still a delay with that kernel and it feels as long as before. I you want, I can clearly provide new debug output or timing information.

Thanks Atom2

Thanks,
Ian.
