Since commit 191b3f3344 ("p2m/ept: enable PML in p2m-ept for
log-dirty"), the A and D bits of EPT paging entries are set
unconditionally, regardless of whether PML is enabled or not. This
causes a regression in Xen 4.6 on some processors due to Intel Errata
AVR41 -- HVM guests get severe memory corruption when the A bit is set
due to incorrect TLB flushing on mov to cr3. The erratum affects the
Atom C2000 family (Avoton).
To fix, do not set the A bit on this processor family.

xen-bugtool =========== The xen-bugtool command line application will collate the Xen dmesg output, details of the hardware configuration of your machine, information about the build of Xen that you are using, plus, if you allow it, various logs. The information collated can either be posted to a Xen Bugzilla bug (this bug must already exist in the system, and you must be a registered user there), or it can be saved as a .tar.bz2 for sending or archiving. The collated logs may contain private information, and if you are at all worried about that, you should not use this tool, or you should explicitly exclude those logs from the archive. xen-bugtool is wholly interactive, so simply run it, and answer the questions.
