[PATCH] machine: Add kvm-type property

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

 



The kvm-type machine option was left out when MachineState was
introduced, preventing the kvm-type option from being used. Add the
missing property.

Tested in a x86 machine only. Help would be welcome to test it on a PPC
machine using -machine spapr and KVM.

Before this patch:

    $ qemu-system-x86_64 -machine pc,kvm-type=hv,accel=kvm
    qemu-system-x86_64: Property '.kvm-type' not found

(This means the option won't work even for sPAPR machines.)

After applying this patch:

    $ qemu-system-x86_64 -machine pc,kvm-type=hv,accel=kvm
    Invalid argument kvm-type=hv

(This means the x86 KVM init code is seeing (and rejecting) the option,
and the sPAPR code can use it.)

Note that qemu-system-x86_64 will segfault with the above command-line
unless an additional fix (submitted today) is applied (kvm: Ensure
negative return value on kvm_init() error handling path).
