Description of problem:

window guest bosd(error code: 0x00000078) when start guest with flag "hv_relaxed";The flag "hv_relaxed" added because of another BSOD bug (Bug 801196 - Win28k KVM guest on RHEL6.1 BSOD with CLOCK_WATCHDOG_TIMEOUT);
after remove this flag guest bootup normally;

Hi Junyi,

view from Bug 871350, hyper-v feature should fix in kernel-2.6.32-350.el6, but bug verified in  2.6.32-351.el6.x86_64;

my test envrioment is:
[root@localhost tmp]# uname -a
Linux localhost.localdomain 2.6.32-350.el6.x86_64 #1 SMP Tue Dec 18 11:19:54 EST 2012 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
[root@localhost tmp]# rpm -q qemu-kvm
qemu-kvm-0.12.1.2-2.349.el6.x86_64

and I will re-test with 2.6.32-351.el6.x86_64's kernel again;

not reporduce this bug on 2.6.32-351.el6.x86_64 and 2.6.32-353.el6.x86_64(latest) kernel, but still reporduce on  2.6.32-350.el6.x86_64 kernel, so I'think "Fixed In Version: kernel-2.6.32-350.el6" of bz871350  is incorrectly, so suggest closed this bug and update fixed in version to 2.6.32-350.el6.x86_64 of bz871350;

thanks,
Xu
