It is a little tricky to clearly answer your question, since I'm not entirely sure what you are wanting to achieve. It is already possible to compile libvirt on the PPC/PPC64 architectures, and you will have the ability to use at least the QEMU and LXC drivers of libvirt. I'm not sure what the state of KVM support is - it probably mostly works, but we don't have anyone regularly testing it AFAIK. Configuring custom CPU models for PPC based guests might need some work. Also not sure what the state of NUMA support is - I presume that libnuma 'just works' on PPC. Do you have knowledge of specific problems with libvirt on PPC ? If not then my recommnendation is to simply take the latest libvirt code from GIT, compile it on your architecture and try to use it and identify bits which are broken / mising. We are happy to receive bug reports about problems on non-x86 architectures, and even happier when people supply patches for them too Daniel -- |: http://berrange.com -o- http://www.flickr.com/photos/dberrange/ :| |: http://libvirt.org -o- http://virt-manager.org :| |: http://autobuild.org -o- http://search.cpan.org/~danberr/ :| |: http://entangle-photo.org -o- http://live.gnome.org/gtk-vnc :| -- libvir-list mailing list libvir-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/libvir-list
