    Hi All,
        

        We are testing the upstream KVM with :

      
        Kernel, Qemu, Libvirt, Virt-Manager is built from the source
        (git).
        

        kernel version : 3.9.0+
        

        qemu version : QEMU emulator version 1.5.0
        

        libvirt version : 1.0.5
        

        virt-install : 0.600.3
        

        I have followed the below steps to test the NMI watchdog feature
        :

        
        1. Installed the watchdog rpm on the guest

        2. Booted the guest with qemu-system-x86_64
          vm1.qcow2 -smp 2 -enable-kvm -m 1000 -cpu Nehalem -watchdog
          i6300esb -watchdog-action reset

          3.  Edit
          the grub.conf with nmi_watchdog=1 

          
          But, I see "cat /proc/interrupts | grep -i nmi" the nmi
          counter is not getting incremented. It would be helpful if you
          let me know whether it is a bug or I am missing some steps.

        
        Thanks,

        Chandrashekar
