I got the problem of multiple cores CPU cannot be fully used when using UEFI mode. It is suggested that I should be boot the xen in legacy mode. How is it done? My environment: Xen 4.1.2, PowerEdge R730xd E5-2603 v3 @ 1.60GHz, ubuntu 14.04 kernel 3.13.0-24-generic Some References I use: http://www.gossamer-threads.com/lists/xen/devel/266383 http://wiki.xenproject.org/wiki/Xen_EFI#Booting_Xen_under_EFI_platform http://lists.xenproject.org/archives/html/xen-users/2013-03/msg00239.html http://wiki.xenproject.org/wiki/Xen_EFI#Booting_Xen_under_EFI_platform http://xenbits.xenproject.org/docs/unstable/misc/efi.html
Here are the files in /boot/efi/EFI/xen$ ls initrd.img-3.13.0-24-generic xen-4.4.1.cfg xen-4.4.1.gz vmlinuz-3.13.0-24-generic.efi.signed xen-4.4.1.efi And the content of xen.4.4.1.cfg [global] default=sle11sp2 [sle11sp2] options=console=vga,com1 com1=57600 loglvl=all noreboot kernel=xen-4.4.1.efi root=/dev/sda1 ro console=tty1 console=hvc0 ramdisk=xen-4.4.1.gz When I run "efibootmgr -w -L Xen -l "\EFI\Xen\xen.efi" -c", it shows: $ efibootmgr -w -L Xen -l "\EFI\Xen\xen-4.4.1.efi" -c Fatal: Couldn't open either sysfs or procfs directories for accessing EFI variables. Try 'modprobe efivars' as root. I tried modprobe efiwars and still generate the same error. Directly reboot the system from BIOS doesn't success. Any suggestions?
