Re: [Xen-users] svm.c:83:d917 Bad instruction length 0
In 3.2.2-rc2-pre, an instruction length of 0 doesn't cause a guest crash, but rather a retry of the instruction. This was introduced in cs 16898. That said, in 3.2 and older svm.c has a bunch of special case emulation code for system instructions, some of which is quite incomplete/incorrect. 3.3 will be much improved in this regard. In any case, a dump of the instruction bytes surrounding the eip would be necessary to determine what the cause was in this particular case.

Does anyone know what a 'svm.c:83:d917 Bad instruction length 0' crash
is? It's what I'm getting when trying to use Windows 2008. I finally got
it installed but it is still crashing randomly with that error. Xen is
3.2.1-2 from Debian Lenny, running on an amd64 system. Windows 3008 is
32 bit.
Thanks
