Sorry, I check it again: Ihe issue I met is because of my qemu's mis-backport, In qemu, kvm_arch_get_supported_cpuid() will set the feature bit: if (function == KVM_CPUID_FEATURES && reg == R_EDX) { ret |= KVM_HINTS_DEDICATED; found = 1; } But I have mis-ported the KVM_HINTS_DEDICATED and KVM_HINTS_REALTIME macro; And it lead to the error I met; And it's right that kernel don't expose this ability! Sorry again!
