Package: xen-hypervisor-4.1-amd64
Version: 4.1.3-3
Severity: normal
Forwarded: http://bugzilla.xen.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=1789

Dear Debian Xen Team,

after an upgrade from Squeeze to Wheezy I see about ten of these per
second filling my system log (about 8 MB/h):

Nov 23 00:15:37 acromantula kernel: [  462.544193] powernow-k8: fid trans failed, fid 0x2, curr 0x0
Nov 23 00:15:37 acromantula kernel: [  462.546919] powernow-k8: transition frequency failed

This seems to be a known upstream issue, see
http://bugzilla.xen.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=1789

If I understand correctly this has been fixed on kernel side around
3.4~rc1, correct? I'm closing the bug for now, but please reopen if
the hardware is still in use and the problem reproducible.
