Description Sam Bingner 2007-05-07 00:35:07 UTC 
Description of problem:
XEN DOM0 kernel does not detect all 4 processors in my system.  If I run "xm
vcpu-set 0 4" it causes a crash and a system freeze.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 2.6.20-2925.5.fc7xen


How reproducible:
1. Boot 2.6.20-2925.5.fc7xen with xen on a multi-processor system
2. To duplicate crash, run "xm vcpu-set 0 2"
 
Actual results:
Kernel sees a single processor

Expected results:
Kernel sees four processors (or however many are present)

Additional info: DMESG and crash message from attempted "xm vcpu-set 0 4" attached

This has been fixed in BZ 238015 (there are a couple patches in that BZ if
you are eager to test it out), just hasn't made it into latest rawhide
yet.  I hadn't tested vcpu-set when I fixed SMP, but I'm sure it's from
the same source issue...Yes, just tested and vcpu-set works as expected
in a fixed kernel.
