Can you try with the following patch?

+++ b/tools/tests/xen-access/xen-access.c

                 rc = xc_hvm_inject_trap(
                     xch, domain_id, req.vcpu_id, 3,

                 {
                     ERROR("Error %d injecting int3\n", rc);

BTW, I don't think you need to specify the instruction length for int3
as the IP should have been moved forward. But it might give us a clue
as to what is going on.

If you set access required, then this is the expected behavior
otherwise the domain should continue running.
