We performed Xen 4.9 RC4 testing on Intel Xeon Skylake, Broadwell, Haswell 
server platforms, verified many functional features on Xen 4.9. We'd like to 
share the result out.

Most of features passed to testing on Xen 4.9 RC4, RAS and nested has some bugs.

RAS:

1.      xen-mceinj tool testing cause dom0 crash 
https://www.mail-archive.com/xen-devel@lists.xen.org/msg108671.html

2.      CPU online/offline fail, Luwei is fixing it:

Nested:
Nested is worse although we know it's an experimental feature. Only Xen on Xen 
works, others hybrid such as KVM on Xen, hyperV on Xen, VMware on Xen all fail.
The status is same as Xen 4.8 rc2.
