Linux Hs 2.6.27-gentoo-r6 #1 SMP Mon Dec 15 11:43:12 CST 2008 x86_64
AMD Athlon(tm) X2 Dual Core Processor BE-2350 AuthenticAMD GNU/Linux
KVM is version 81. Installed from portage.
The guest is 64bit debian lenny, Within guest, we install the xen system.
The xen-in-kvm won't boot fine after upgraded to kvm-81.
After testing, I found:
With kvm-81 userspace util and kernel modules bundled with kernel
2.6.27, xen-in-kvm boots fine..
If I try to use the kvm module bundled with kvm-81, The xen-in-kvm
doesn't boot, with guest screen messed up.
For the combination of both kernel modules and userspace utils are from kvm-81.
With either -no-kvm-irqchip or -no-kvm-pit option passed, xen-in-kvm boots fine.
With both -no-kvm-irqchip and -no-kvm-pit options passed, xen-in-kvm
also boots fine.
Though, We can see the screen messed up when the kernel boots. But the
mess up will be cleared by newer kernel messages.
The *problem* script used to start xen-in-kvm.
TAPNAME=tap0
sudo /usr/bin/tunctl -u hyy -t $TAPNAME
sudo /sbin/ifconfig $TAPNAME up
sudo /sbin/brctl addif br0 $TAPNAME
kvm -k en-us -m 2048 \
-daemonize \
-vnc localhost:5 \

Thanks.
