[Xen-users] On domU console, "BUG: soft lockup detected on CPU#1!"
I''ve got a number of RHEL5 PV domUs running on an RHEL5 x86_64 dom0.
I had cause to connect to the domU consoles today, and on one of them,
the below output had been written to the console 20-30 times.
BUG: soft lockup detected on CPU#1!

This domU has an uptime of 84 days, and I''ve noticed no problems with
its regular operation, so I''m wondering if this error block is just
something to ignore, or if it might be indicative of a problem that
needs further attention.
The domU config is:
name = "lyberdev1"
uuid = "344d9366-838b-661c-1ee7-886b97c54048"
maxmem = 4096
memory = 2048
vcpus = 2
bootloader = "/usr/bin/pygrub"
on_poweroff = "destroy"
on_reboot = "restart"
on_crash = "restart"
vfb = [ ]
disk = [ "file:/var/lib/xen/images/lyberdev1-disk0,xvda,w"
,"file:/var/lib/xen/images/lyberdev1-disk1,xvdb,w" ]
vif = [ "mac=00:16:3e:40:0a:88,bridge=xenbr2" ]
The kernel in the domU is 2.6.18-53.1.14.el5xen (rhel5); on the dom0,
the kernel is 2.6.18-53.1.21.el5xen (also rhel5), and I''ve got
xen-3.0.3-41.el5. The dom0 hardware is a Sun Fire X4200 M2 (2 x dual-
core AMD CPUs), with 8 GB of RAM. I''ll note that this doesn''t
appear
on the console of any of the other domUs on the system.
I see a bunch of similar bug reports if I google around, but nothing
definitive as to the cause, solution, or severity of this error
message, so if someone has a suggestion, I''d really appreciate hearing
it, thanks!
