KVM: nested VMX: disable perf cpuid reporting

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

 



Initilization of L2 guest with -cpu host, on L1 guest with -cpu host 
triggers:

(qemu) KVM: entry failed, hardware error 0x7
...
nested_vmx_run: VMCS MSR_{LOAD,STORE} unsupported

Nested VMX MSR load/store support is not sufficient to 
allow perf for L2 guest.

Until properly fixed, trap CPUID and disable function 0xA.
