Anthony, can you please share any patch that can help me with this?

>>>> Can you post the full output of the logs?

I have attached the output of "sudo xl -v create /etc/xen/qemu-pv.cfg" as xl_create.txt. I have also enabled DEBUG_XEN_HVM in xen-hvm.c and pasted output of "sudo ./x86_64-softmmu/qemu-system-x86_64 -machine q35,accel=xen -cpu qemu64 -xen-domid 13" below:

xen: shared page at pfn feffd

xen: buffered io page at pfn feffb

bind interdomain ioctl error 22

xen hardware virtual machine initialisation failed

>>>> What is the Xen version that you are running?

I am using XEN 4.4.1 as this is the default on Ubuntu 14.04. I have attached the output of "xl info" command as xl_info.txt.

>>>>Did you execute the xencommons init script at boot time?

On Ubuntu I don't see /etc/init.d/xencommon but there is a /etc/init.d/xen script which starts xenstored and xenconsoled. I did confirm from ps aufx that both the daemons are running. I have attched log for "ps aufx" as ps_aufx_grep_xen.txt .

You should know that q35 emulation is not fully working on Xen yet.
However Anthony (CC'ed) should have some patches for it.

That said, it does not look like this error has something to do with
q35.

Can you post the full output of the logs?
What is the Xen version that you are running?
Did you execute the xencommons init script at boot time?
