We find that with cset 14356, xm restore an hvm guest will fail on both 32bit and 64bit platforms. "xm save" returns successfully and the size of the file containing a saved guest is correct, however, after "xm restore", error message of "Restore failed" will be printed and xend.log shows that some python related errors happen. http://bugzilla.xensource.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=929 has been reported for this issue.
