An error in virHostCPUGetKVMMaxVCPUs() means we've been unable to access /dev/kvm, or we're running on a platform that doesn't support KVM in the first place. If that's the case, we shouldn't ignore the error and report domcapabilities even though we know the user won't be able to start any KVM guest. --- src/qemu/qemu_capabilities.c | 9 ++++++--- 1 file changed, 6 insertions(+), 3 deletions(-) diff --git a/src/qemu/qemu_capabilities.c b/src/qemu/qemu_capabilities.c index 28d5321..ae54c94 100644 --- a/src/qemu/qemu_capabilities.c +++ b/src/qemu/qemu_capabilities.c @@ -4349,9 +4349,12 @@ virQEMUCapsFillDomainCaps(virDomainCapsPtr domCaps, domCaps->maxvcpus = virQEMUCapsGetMachineMaxCpus(qemuCaps, domCaps->machine); if (virttype == VIR_DOMAIN_VIRT_KVM) { - int hostmaxvcpus = virHostCPUGetKVMMaxVCPUs(); - if (hostmaxvcpus >= 0) - domCaps->maxvcpus = MIN(domCaps->maxvcpus, hostmaxvcpus); + int hostmaxvcpus; + + if ((hostmaxvcpus = virHostCPUGetKVMMaxVCPUs()) < 0) + return -1; + + domCaps->maxvcpus = MIN(domCaps->maxvcpus, hostmaxvcpus); } if (virQEMUCapsFillDomainOSCaps(os, firmwares, nfirmwares) < 0 || -- 2.7.4 -- libvir-list mailing list libvir-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/libvir-list
