Pvops kernel
2.6.31-rc6 frequently hangs at the point of issuing DHCPRELEASE on main
ethernet interface at Dom0 .
After some time (1-2 min) console droppes into stack trace:-
SoltLock CPU#0 idle for 61 sec!
.. . . . . . . . . . .
{DRDY}
SoltLock CPU#0 idle for 61 sec!
. . . . . . . . . . .
{DRDY}
.. . . . .
It doesn''t happen to any of xenified kernels 2.6.29.6 or 2.6.30.2
running
via different Grub2 entries under the same Xen 3..4.1 Hypervisor on top
Ubuntu 9.10 Server (alpha 4).
Only cold restart of ADSL modem ( with embedded DHCP server) working
as router to the NET ( ZYXEL P660RT2) allows to issue DHCPDISCOVER
on eth1 (Dom0) , what successfully follows by DHCPOFFER, DHCPREQUEST,DHCPACK ,
xenbus activation and login prompt finally.

The most recent build 2.6.31-rc6 compiled with static cmd line per Chris
works as well as xenified kernels via GRUB2 menuentry on Ubuntu 9.10 Server
(alpha 4)

It does help for 2.6..30.2 xenified aka Suse kernel( via Andy Lyon''s
Patch Set V.3) and doesn''t help for 2.6.31-rc5 pvops enabled kernel.
I can''t build fresh 2-6-31-rc6 at the moment. Make fails.

Afaik grub2 does not pass the boot parameters "root=/dev/sda2 ro
console=tty0" to the kernel in multiboot/module
combination. I have seen the same problem on
gentoo/grub2 and also read about this before. (This is not really Xen specific,
but multiboot related).
My workaround was to compile the kernel options as static cmdline into the
kernel itself...
Best regards,
Christian

I''ve just committed a couple of fixes which can avoid a deadlock like this.
