PE and PG are turned off. I'm surprised by this result. The instruction you refer to is below "_AsmTransferControl_al_0000" (in the original, unpatched code). I had earlier added an infinite loop right below that label (a different loop than my xxxx debug loop), and it was *never* reached in my test. That is, from the lret that I reported as problematic, to the instruction you refer to, the CPU would have had to cross (and finish) the infinite loop that I had added earlier. And that never happened in my test. I had added that loop at "_AsmTransferControl_al_0000" immediately precisely because I wanted to see if the label is reached and the problem is with something below that label, or with the first lret. I sent my email to the KVM list after I had isolated the problem to the first LRET: http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.bios.tianocore.devel/5297/focus=5325 On 12/04/13 19:05, Laszlo Ersek wrote: > I tested if the (intended) target location of the LRET is reached, and > it is not.

Strikes any bell? We're wildly corrupting OS memory during OVMF S3 resume. That's a known problem and the next stage for me to figure out (with Jordan's help hopefully): http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.bios.tianocore.devel/5297/focus=5321 http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.bios.tianocore.devel/5297/focus=5325 So, your tracing reached / debugged code that I had never ever reached. And my report was precisely about not reaching it. Once we reach it, it's expected to blow up, but first I wanted to get there. Again, the 64-bit->16-bit switch (in the original, unpatched edk2/OVMF code) never worked for me. I think I did find the reason for that though, please see http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.bios.tianocore.devel/5343/focus=5365 especially the last patch attached to it. The likely reason for the failure I was seeing is that the 16-bit code had been relocated to way above 1MB and could not be addressed with the 16-bit CS:IP notation at all. Thanks!
