Nested KVM is broken on a AMD Ryzen 5 2400G

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

 



Hello,

I am trying to do nested KVM on a Ryzen 5 2400G, my use case is the following:

- Arch Linux as the host OS.
- Ubuntu 18.04.1 as the guest OS.

I am using qemu 3.1.0-1 (from the extra repository) on Arch Linux.

This is the command I am using to start the VM:

qemu-system-x86_64 -enable-kvm -hda ubuntu.qcow2 -m 4G -smp 4 -vga
virtio -cpu host

The reason I need nested KVM is that I am trying to build some snap
packages on Ubuntu, and that uses an utility called "multipass" which
seems to run some VMs.

Anyway, everything works until I run "snapcraft", which then calls
multipass and I get the following on the host dmesg:

Please let me know if you need more information. I've tried the same
thing on a broadwell laptop (T450) and nested KVM works just fine
there.

The host Arch kernel is:

[diego@ryzen ~]$ uname -a
Linux ryzen 4.20.3-arch1-1-ARCH #1 SMP PREEMPT Wed Jan 16 22:38:58 UTC
2019 x86_64 GNU/Linux
[diego@ryzen ~]$

The guest Ubuntu kernel:

diego@diego-Standard-PC-i440FX-PIIX-1996:~$ uname -a
Linux diego-Standard-PC-i440FX-PIIX-1996 4.15.0-29-generic #31-Ubuntu
SMP Tue Jul 17 15:39:52 UTC 2018 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
diego@diego-Standard-PC-i440FX-PIIX-1996:~$

The issues I experience besides dmesg being flooded with the above
message on the host OS is that the snapcraft utility just doesn't work
on the guest, it times out, while on the T450 it works right away.
This leads me to think that nested KVM is broken on AMD.

Thanks,
Diego
