[Xen-devel] Booting F21-Alpha-x86 iso image on Xen 4.4 with: io.c:206:d240 MMIO emulation failed @ 0008:ffff245f: 38 7d 2d 3d 02 83 ff ff da 95

Hey,

Tomorrow is Fedora 21 Alpha test day and I decided to try it
one day earlier. The PV guests install just fine, but to my
surprise the HVM ones crash. It did not matter what kind of
ISO image I put in, it always crashed at:

Which seem to be:

   3:   3d 02 83 ff ff          cmp    $0xffff8302,%eax
   8:   da                      .byte 0xda
   9:   95                      xchg   %eax,%ebp

If I change the guest config to use QEMU traditional it all works
fine.

To make sure it is nothing else but the lowlevel code, I tried
all of this using 'xl' and an simple guest config.

Then I replaced the 'hvmloader' with the one I had built (on F21)
and it worked fine.

Attached is the good and bad 'dmesg' output.  And also the
'readelf -a' output from both hvmloader.

Nothing screams at me as "BUG HERE"..
