Yes you are right I am trying to create the guest with "xl create” and before that, I created the logical volume and trying to attach the logical volume block to the domain with “xl block-attach”. I observed this error with the "xl block-attach” command. This issue occurs after applying this patch as what I observed this patch introduce the calls to iommu_legacy_{, un}map() to map the grant pages for IOMMU that touches the page-tables. I am not sure but what I observed is that something is written wrong when iomm_unmap calls unmap the pages because of that issue is observed. You can reproduce the issue by just creating the dummy image file and try to attach it with “xl block-attach” dd if=/dev/zero of=test.img bs=1024 count=0 seek=1024 xl block-attach 0 phy:test.img xvda w Sequence of command that I follow is as follows to reproduce the issue: lvs vg-xen/myguest lvcreate -y -L 4G -n myguest vg-xen parted -s /dev/vg-xen/myguest mklabel msdos parted -s /dev/vg-xen/myguest unit MB mkpart primary 1 4096 sync xl block-attach 0 phy:/dev/vg-xen/myguest xvda w libxl: error: libxl_xshelp.c:201:libxl__xs_read_mandatory: xenstore read failed: `/libxl/0/type': No such file or directory libxl: warning: libxl_dom.c:51:libxl__domain_type: unable to get domain type for domid=0, assuming HVM [ 162.632232] xen-blkback: backend/vbd/0/51712: using 4 queues, protocol 1 (arm-abi) persistent grants [ 162.764847] vbd vbd-0-51712: 9 mapping in shared page 8 from domain 0 [ 162.771740] vbd vbd-0-51712: 9 mapping ring-ref port 5 [ 162.777650] ------------[ cut here ]------------ [ 162.782167] WARNING: CPU: 2 PID: 37 at drivers/block/xen-blkback/xenbus.c:296 xen_blkif_disconnect+0x20c/0x230 [ 162.792230] Modules linked in: bridge stp llc ipv6 nf_defrag_ipv6 [ 162.798394] CPU: 2 PID: 37 Comm: xenwatch Not tainted 5.4.0-yocto-standard #1 [ 162.805597] Hardware name: Arm Neoverse N1 System Development Platform (DT) [ 162.812630] pstate: 80c00005 (Nzcv daif +PAN +UAO) [ 162.817489] pc : xen_blkif_disconnect+0x20c/0x230 [ 162.822262] lr : xen_blkif_disconnect+0xbc/0x230 [ 162.826949] sp : ffff800011cb3c80 …….
