Remember that Hyper-V's primary partition is _also_ running under the nested hypervisor and thus is expecting to see the hypervisor bit in CPUID. So the error messages can be confusing. For example "a component required by Hyper-V failed to start" could mean "the primary partition found the CPUID bit to be set, as expected, but didn't find the right hypervisor interface". > Since you are the most likely person to know, is Hyper-V nested > virtualization likely to work with KVM in the near term? It needs manpower. If somebody wants the feature enough that they will spend time looking at why it doesn't work, then that will help.
