[Pkg-xen-devel] Bug#795330: Suggests noapic but doesn't support it

Package: xen-hypervisor-4.5-amd64
Severity: normal

Hi,
when running xen inside of kvm the hypervisor fails to set up the proper
IRQ routing and suggests to use noapic. If you add this via

    GRUB_CMDLINE_XEN_DEFAULT

it will boot futher but then report that noapic isn't supported.

So please make Xen not claim to support noapic if it doesn't (the issue
was finally resolved by removeing all virtion devices and doubling the
hypervisors RAM so the suggestion was misplaced anyways).
Cheers,
 -- Guido
