Public bug reported: I have an (old) hypervisor with an Intel Xeon E3110 (Core 2 Duo E8400 rebranded) that is unable to boot 2 of my 17 KVM guests. The guests that boot fine are all Xenial (running 4.4.0-104.127). The 2 that do not work are: a Trusty VM (3.13.0-137.186) and an OpenBSD 6.2 VM (latest kernel).
With previous kernels, the host used those boot arguments: hugepages=3008 kaslr nmi_watchdog=0 possible_cpus=2 transparent_hugepage=never vsyscall=none Now with 4.4.0-108.131, to be able to boot the Trusty and OpenBSD VMs, I had to drop most boot args to only have this: hugepages=3008 I will try to find which arg(s) is responsible for the guest boot problem.
