[Xen-users] Booting Xen 4.1.3 Dom0 hangs with PANIC on CPU 6: Xen BUG at io_apic.c:129

["Brent Alcorn" <Brent.Alcorn@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi all,

I have searched the net and haven't found a good answer so I hope perhaps 
someone here can help.

I have an IBM x3850 (8863) that I am upgrading from SLES11SP1 to SLES11SP2, and 
at the same time XEN is being upgraded as part of the distro.   The server is 
used as a Xen host for up to 6 guests.

  Anyway, the server boots fine with the SLES11SP2 default kernel, and the 
trace kernel, but, fails on booting to the Xen kernel and exits with:

(XEN) ****************************************
(XEN) Panic on CPU 6:
(XEN) Xen BUG at io_apic.c:129
(XEN) ****************************************

There are only 4 cpu's in the system, but, xen seems to always report 2x more 
since I have started using xen 3x.  


Prior to this message I was receiving "waiting for drive to appear" , but, I 
changed the initrd to remove some old kernel module, and reinstalled the xen 
kernel.  

I have added most of the APIC related lines from the log below.

Any suggestions?
Thanks,
Brent
