Hi Lists,
I currently have the issue of wanting to use emu-system-x86_64 on a ppc64le platform.
It is imperative to pass the "-accel tcg,thread=multi” parameter to qemu when starting an instance, as without that, it will only use one thread and hence of limited/no use.
The problem is, that libvirt itself, passes “-machine q35,accel=tcg” to qemu, which is a different parameter, that conflicts with the other one.
Can we discuss, if I either have overlooked something, or is there a workaround, or is this a bug?
I’m running:
# uname -a
Linux tiger-v4 5.7.0-1-powerpc64le #1 SMP Debian 5.7.6-1 (2020-06-24) ppc64le GNU/Linux
# apt-cache policy libvirt-daemon

Candidate: 6.5.0-1
Version table:
*** 6.5.0-1 500

# apt-cache policy qemu-system-x86

Do you need any more information?
Feel free to only continue on the list that matters.
Greetings, Jan
