Hi guys,

I was trying to get Jailhouse running on my system. While the installation was 
successful, besides the fact that I had some strange ssl .pem error, enabling 
Jailhouse caused my linux to hang. I reserved 80M of RAM during boot.

To give you some overview of the situation, this is my machine:

- Intel Xeon E5630 (2x on my motherboard, so 2 Processors with 8 Cores in total)
- Ubuntu 16.04
- Linux Kernel 4.4.0 generic

I am not using kvm or qemu. This is what I did:

1.) Clone Jailhouse from git repository

2.) Go to directory and 
#sudo make install

3.) Generate sysconfig.cell
#sudo jailhouse config create sysconfig.c
#mv sysconfig.c configs/sysconfig.c
#sudo make

4.) Check hardware
#sudo jailhouse hardware check configs/sysconfig.cell
=> Check passed

5.) Add memmap and iommu to /etc/default/grub
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash intel_iommu=off 
memmap=80M\\\$0x3b000000

#sudo update-grub
#sudo reboot

6.) Memory was successfully reserved, checked with dmesg

7.) Go to Jailhouse directory 
#sudo insmod driver/jailhouse.ko
(Module was loaded, checked via lsmod | grep jailhouse)

8.) Enable Jailhouse
#sudo jailhouse enable configs/sysconfig.cell

And at this point the system hangs and never returns. I saw once a error 
message "Input/Ouput Error", but I unfortunately don't know anymore how I got 
this....

Does anybody has a clue what is causing the failure? I would appreciate every 
help.

Greetings
Intelsat
