[Xen-devel] Bisected Xen-unstable: "Segment register inaccessible for d1v0" when starting HVM guest on intel

[Sander Eikelenboom <linux@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi,

On intel machines when starting a HVM guest with qemu upstream i get:

(d2) [2014-06-27 20:07:46] Booting from Hard Disk...
(d2) [2014-06-27 20:07:46] Booting from 0000:7c00

    x86/hvm: add SMAP support to HVM guest

    Intel new CPU supports SMAP (Supervisor Mode Access Prevention).
    SMAP prevents supervisor-mode accesses to any linear address with
    a valid translation for which the U/S flag (bit 2) is 1 in every
    paging-structure entry controlling the translation for the linear
    address.


This is on a intel NUC (core i5) using xen-unstable.
