Restoring 32bit Windows XP VM Saved State Fails => Fixed in SVN

[DaveD]

VM boots cleanly, and creates snapshot, .sav file is about 100M (not always same size), . When restoring VM from a saved state snapshot, it will always fail with the following:

00:00:02.244370 !!Assertion Failed!!
00:00:02.244370 Expression: !VMCPU_FF_IS_SET(pVCpu, VMCPU_FF_INTERRUPT_PIC)

00:00:02.244388 

Guest Additions are current. I have recreated snapshot without any effect on the problem. This worked correctly with the same VM under 5.2.22 and before.

host os: arch linux kernel 4.20.3 guest os: windows xp 32bit

Confirmed for Windows 10 1803 host.

Perhaps a duplicate of #18263 (Restoring 32bit Windows7 VM Saved State Fails), or #18265 (Win7 in VB 6.0.0 fails on resume on 97%)?

I've tried to reproduce the crash with a Windows 7 32 bit VM, standard VM setting, but I couldn't.

error message is different then #18263 and resume reach 100% before throw the error. In my case, win xp, the odd thing is .sav file size, it's about 1/10 (100M) of memory assigned to vm (1GB), seem something get wrong during memory state saving. In attachment VBox.log of saved state, far as i can see i'ts all ok

I have version 6.0.4 and a Win XP VM:

Steps to reproduce: Create a save point for Win XP guest, close the VM, restore

Expected:Guest VM is restored and runs

Actual:Restore progress bar get close to 100%, error message pops up

Log:

I've done new tests on 6.0.4

• xp restore (fresh install + guest additions) NOT WORKING
  

00:00:02.244370 !!Assertion Failed!! 00:00:02.244370 Expression: !VMCPU_FF_IS_SET

• windows 10 restore (fresh install + guest additions) WORKING
