dmesg printout when starting VirtualBox VM
Hello:
After some problems with my XPSP3 VM crashing, I am now getting this printout every time I start the VM.
All this runs under VirtualBox Version 7.0.12 r159484 from the VirtualBox repository.
This happens (no surprise) with XPSP3, stopping and restarting a Chimaera headless VM does not have this problem, so it would seem to be limited to the Windows VM.
commands
~$ vboxmanage list vms
"groucho xp" {e2bdf021-b1a1-49b8-8ec9-3d4a5d194751}
"madmax chimaera" {9a65cf7c-2559-40de-a17e-8d1ab90871e6}
~$
~$ vboxmanage controlvm "madmax chimaera" poweroff
0%...10%...20%...30%...40%...50%...60%...70%...80%...90%...100%
~$
~$ vboxmanage startvm "madmax chimaera" --type headless
Waiting for VM "madmax chimaera" to power on...
VM "madmax chimaera" has been successfully started.

Re: dmesg printout when starting VirtualBox VM
Hello:
... anyone here give me some idea as to what could be causing this?
ie: what all this means.
Hmm ....
Maybe with some additional information?
For the sake of clarity/brevity I will skip the long story:
1.
Discovered the problem and rolled back to a VM snapshot from 30 days
ago, the oldest one I have.
Concurrently, rolled back to VBox (7.0.6) along with its
GuestAdditions 7.0.6.
I thought that it would rule out (?) a VBox update or some corruption
in the XPSP3 VM as everything happened way after that date.
At least I did not notice it as I do not use the XP VM often.
Problem did *not* go away.
2.
Removed VBox 7.0.6 / GuestAdditions 7.0.6, reinstalled the latest
available (7.0.12) along with GuestAdditions and the Extension Pack
which was missing.
Problem did *not* go away.
3.
Went back to the last snapshot and tried to fix things by mucking
around the XPSP3 installation but only managed to screw it up even
more.
The net result being that it is now on a 'black screen select how to
boot' and 'blue screen with whatever' loop.
4.
I attempted to add a new XP VM using three or four of the
downloadable XP isos I found on the web and was able to install one
of them as a VM.
Problem did *not* go away and shutdown does not work.
Not even shutting down X via ctrl+backspace.
Have to reboot my box.
TL;DR
The problem exists whether I use VirtualBox 7.06 or 7.0.12, with a
recovered version of the VM or the latest one.
Installing a new XPSP3 VM, whether in VirtualBox 7.0.6 or 7.0.12,
complete with GA+EP does not solve the problem.
In all cases, disconnecting the host from the web (cable and all)
does not solve the problem so phoning home does not seem to be a
posible cause.
This is (part of) what I get in a rolling dmesg screen:

[ +0.000002] ---[ end trace 2d76295c57757cc8 ]---The warning is always the same.
ie:
at arch/x86/kernel/fpu/core.c:129 kernel_fpu_begin_mask+0xc9/0xe0
The call trace starts with the same line.
ie:
SUPR0FpuBegin+0x13/0x20 [vboxdrv]
And it is all about the same module:
ie:
? VBoxHost_RTThreadCtxHookEnable+0x32/0x40 [vboxdrv]
? VBoxHost_RTThreadCtxHookEnable+0x32/0x40 [vboxdrv]
? supdrvIOCtlFast+0x58/0xb0 [vboxdrv]
? VBoxDrvLinuxIOCtl_7_0_12+0x57/0x230 [vboxdrv]~$ lsmod | grep vbox
vboxnetadp 28672 0
vboxnetflt 32768 1
vboxdrv 589824 4 vboxnetadp,vboxnetflt # <- this one
~$ One of the important packages updated lately was linux-kbuild.
ie: 5.10.179-5~deb10u1 to 5.10.197-1~deb10u1
I understand that it is closely related to module handling by the kernel.
If anyone has a clue as to what the trace in dmesg indicates, I'm
all ears.
Thanks in advance.
