As mentioned in my first comment, this bug also affects the netboot installer at e.g. http://gb.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/bionic/main/installer-i386/current/images/ so it is still not possible to boot the installer in 32-bit under Xen. The main OS kernel has been fixed but not the installer kernel.

This bug is awaiting verification that the kernel in -proposed solves the problem. Please test the kernel and update this bug with the results. If the problem is solved, change the tag 'verification-needed- bionic' to 'verification-done-bionic'. If the problem still exists, change the tag 'verification-needed-bionic' to 'verification-failed- bionic'. If verification is not done by 5 working days from today, this fix will be dropped from the source code, and this bug will be closed.

Hi Joseph, As this problem only affects 32-bit, there would need to be an i686 kernel there. As far as I can see there are only amd64 packages. I have already tested this patch on the linux source package from 18.04 (comment #9), but I don't have the binary packages around any more. If you want me to do it again with packages you supply then I can do that, though it will take a little while as I will have to install a 17.10 image and then do-release-upgrade it to 18.04 first.

[Bug 1789118] Re: Fails to boot under Xen PV: BUG: unable to handle kernel paging request at edc21fd9
Okay, I went back through the kernel PPAs and in fact the most recent one that I can get to boot under 32-bit PV mode Xen is 4.13.16. 4.14-rc1 does not boot. I realised then that it was possible that I had never tested any version of 32-bit Ubuntu 18.04 under Xen. It is possible that I only ever tested it 64-bit. The only reason why I am looking into this now is because a user with a 32-bit Ubuntu 16.04 did a release upgrade to 18.04. On seeing that a large number of upstream kernel releases don't boot under 32-bit Xen, I did a quick check what the situation is in Debian. I know that I tested the current Debian stable both 32- and 64-bit. But that is based on kernel 4.9.x. A 4.17.x kernel is available in stretch-backports, so I tried that, and sure enough that crashes too. So, I'm a little shocked that I would be the first to notice this, but it seems like the upstream Linux kernel stopped working under 32-bit PV mode Xen quite some time ago. I am more familiar with Debian so I am going to built the latest upstream stable kernel release on Debian and check that it also crashes in the same way, and if so then I guess I report it upstream, maybe do a bisection myself in Debian. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1789118 Title: Fails to boot under Xen PV: BUG: unable to handle kernel paging request at edc21fd9 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1789118/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 1789118] Re: Fails to boot under Xen PV: BUG: unable to handle kernel paging request at edc21fd9
32-bit kernel http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v4.15.18 /linux-image-4.15.18-041518-generic_4.15.18-041518.201804190330_i386.deb does not boot, in fact it crashes immediately without producing any console output at all (so doesn't get as far as the currently-packaged linux-image-generic). The 64-bit package http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel- ppa/mainline/v4.15.18/linux- image-4.15.18-041518-generic_4.15.18-041518.201804190330_amd64.deb boots and seems to behave as expected. Would it help if I went back through package versions of linux-image- generic until I find one that does boot? I know for certain that one of them does because this was encountered only after an update. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1789118 Title: Fails to boot under Xen PV: BUG: unable to handle kernel paging request at edc21fd9 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1789118/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Does the machine boot if you select 4.15.0-33 from the GRUB menu? If so, can you test the latest 4.15 upstream stable kernel, which can be downloaded from: http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v4.15.18/ ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided => High ** Also affects: linux (Ubuntu Bionic) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu Bionic) Importance: Undecided => High ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu Bionic) Status: New => Incomplete ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu) Status: Confirmed => Incomplete ** Tags added: kernel-key -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1789118 Title: Fails to boot under Xen PV: BUG: unable to handle kernel paging request at edc21fd9 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1789118/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Additionally, this means that the netboot installer at e.g. http://gb.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/bionic/main/installer-i386/current/images/netboot/xen/vmlinuz also does not boot under Xen PV. Again, the 64-bit equivalent does still work. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1789118 Title: Fails to boot under Xen PV: BUG: unable to handle kernel paging request at edc21fd9 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux-meta/+bug/1789118/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
