Hello! Here is a success report for 4.11.0 rc6. Better late than never, right?
## Hardware
- modern Lenovo V520-15IKL Desktop (i5-7400: 4 cores)
- old monster IBM 3850 M2 (x4 Xeon X7350: 16 cores)
I wish I had some Opterons available.
## Software (resp.)
- Devuan/ascii and Linux 4.17.0.slackxen
- Slackware64/14.2 and Linux 4.4.88.slackxen
Runs without Grub and without libvirt.
## Guest operating systems
- PV/ NetBSD 7.1 (XEN3_DOMU.201703111743Z)
- PV/ NetBSD 7.1.2 (XEN3_DOMU.201803151611Z)
- PV/ Ubuntu 16.04 LTS and Linux 4.4.0-21-generic
- HVM/ Devuan GNU/Linux 2.0 (ascii) and Linux 4.9.0-6-amd64
## Functionality tested
- PV & HVM/ xl create, shu, des
- HVM/ altp2m with LibVMI and Drakvuf (on the modern hardware only)
- blktap2 as `tap:tapdisk:aio` and `tap:qcow2`
## Comments
It feels great, as usual. I am glad the `cr` alias for creating a guest is back.
I did not do any stress tests nor benchmarks. This is just a basic report saying that nothing went wrong.
Congratulations for the good and hard work.

Happy to see Drakvuf getting some tests alongside Xen :) This test
report thus covers vm_event and memaccess interfaces as well.
Thanks!

Hello. Some update on my 4.11rc6 tests. In brief, Linux guest
migration works fine. Some issues with NetBSD guests' migrations but
this is not necessarily related to 4.11rc6. I am rather addressing this
to the port-xen netbsd mailing-list.
In detail, I am maintaining a farm of 4 XEN hosts running Linux dom0s:
HARDWARE
ubuntu1: Product Name: IBM 3850 M2 / x3950 M2 -[71414RG]-
slack2 : Product Name: IBM 3850 M2 / x3950 M2 -[71414RG]-
slack3 : Product Name: IBM 3850 M2 / x3950 M2 -[71414RG]-
slack4 : Product Name: IBM 3850 M2 / x3950 M2 -[71414RG]-
XEN VERSIONS
ubuntu1: (XEN) Xen version 4.9.0 (Ubuntu 4.9.0-0ubuntu3)
(stefan.bader@canonical.com)
slack2 : (XEN) Xen version 4.11-rc (root@example.local)
slack3 : (XEN) Xen version 4.11-rc (root@example.local)
slack4 : (XEN) Xen version 4.11-rc (root@example.local)
LINUX VERSIONS
ubuntu1: 4.13.0-39-generic
slack2 : 4.17.1.slackxen
slack3 : 4.17.1.slackxen
slack4 : 4.4.88.xen
XEN GUESTS
PV teacher: Ubuntu artful 17.10 with vmlinuz-4.13.0-21-generic kernel
and Blktap2 tap:qcow2 against a virtual disk
PV ubuntustrap1: Ubuntu artful 17.10 with custom vmlinuz.4.4.88.domu
kernel and Blktap2 tap:tapdisk:aio against a virtual ext4 disk/partition
PV snegw: NetBSD 7.1.2 (XEN3_DOMU.201803151611Z) using Blktap2 tap:qcow2
against a virtual disk
PV netbsdffs8: NetBSD 8.0_RC1 (XEN3_DOMU.201804191727Z) using Blktap2
tap:tapdisk:aio against a virtual ffs disk/partition
LINUX GUEST MIGRATION TESTS
- both the teacher and ubuntustrap1 guests hot-migrate fine from
ubuntu1->slack2->slack3->slack4 and back to ubuntu1
NETBSD GUEST MIGRATION TESTS
- migrating snegw from slack3 to slack4 succeeds but prints an error
- migrating snegw from slack4 to slack3 fails
- migrating netbsdffs8 from slack3 to slack4 fails
- migrating netbsdffs8 from slack4 to slack3 fails
