Libvirt qemu-system-x86_64 on ppc64le no multi threading

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



hi,

 

i’m running Debian 10 on POWER9 and would like to spawn x86_64 emulated VMs.

The virtual machine is configured to run with 8 vpus but it’s very slow.

On the host you can see that the qemu-system-x86_64 process is using just one core!

 

Ppc64le guests are using multi cores, so its looks like an config problem or software bug with the x86 emulator.
