Hi Christian, thanks for the hints!

"Force fcf-protection off when using -mindirect-branch". In that case want this one, it's not backported to 4.11-stable: "x86/build: Unilaterally disable -fcf-protection" https://xenbits.xen.org/gitweb/?p=xen.git;a=commit;h=3a218961b16f1f4feb1147f56338faf1ac8f5703 > https://git.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xen/tree/debian/patches/1000-flags-fcs-protect-none.patch?h=ubuntu/groovy-devel This one is about the build failing. > This would seem more applicable if the new toolchain would have recently > rebuilt xen and not qemu as in this case. But as an FYI it is still worth a > ping. 小太, can you do... xl create -vvv <domU.cfg> ...which should show how qemu is invoked. Can you show that command? I can provide you with some test packages with the mentioned upstream patch applied (on top of 4.11.4+24-gddaaccbbab-1), so you can test if your domU starts with them. If so, we can request the backport upstream and/or maybe pick it for Debian 4.11 into the patch queue, whatever happens earlier. Thanks, Hans (Debian Xen Team)
