Actually, I spoke to Andrea earlier last week and he told me that he'd generated these on a real HW using our machine reservation system, so the issue you're describing might not be originating from an emulated environment rather than missing some compilation options when he was building QEMU from source... However, it's important that we've merged the update. Erik -- libvir-list mailing list libvir-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/libvir-list
