Hello, Looking for a pointer to a working setup of kvm nesting kvm with svm extensions working thruout. I'm working with proxmox - and trying to get a proxmox in a proxmox working. KVM is called as follows from the proxmox host. 31515 ? Sl 27:15 /usr/bin/kvm -monitor unix:/var/run/qemu-server/109.mon,server,nowait -vnc unix:/var/run/qemu-server/109.vnc,password -pidfile /var/run/qemu-server/109.pid -daemonize -usbdevice tablet -name proxmoxkvmtest -smp sockets=1,cores=1 -vga cirrus -tdf -k en-us -drive file=/mnt/pve/nfsimages/images/109/vm-109-disk-1.raw,if=ide,index=0,boot=on -drive file=/var/lib/vz/template/iso/proxmox-ve_1.4-4390.iso,if=ide,index=2,media=cdrom -m 512 -net tap,vlan=0,ifname=vmtab109i0,script=/var/lib/qemu-server/bridge-vlan -net nic,vlan=0,model=e1000,macaddr=A2:40:B2:EF:69:B8 -id 109 -cpuunits 1000 -enable-nesting The key thing (it appears - is the enable nesting) - the other piece that it looks like it needs is a kernel argument to properly enable the kvm extensions cause there is no /dev/kvm but there is an error in dmesg from the dmesg output / boot console of the virtualized kvm instance of the following [snip from dmesg of first boot] ... tun: (C) 1999-2004 Max Krasnyansky <maxk@xxxxxxxxxxxx> general protection fault: 0000 [1] PREEMPT SMP CPU: 0 Modules linked in: kvm_amd kvm vzethdev vznetdev simfs vzrst vzcpt tun vzdquota vzmon vzdev xt_tcpudp xt_length ipt_ttl xt_tcpmss xt_TCPMSS iptable_mangle iptab le_filter xt_multiport xt_limit ipt_tos ipt_REJECT ip_tables x_tables ipv6 ib_is er rdma_cm ib_cm iw_cm ib_sa ib_mad ib_core ib_addr iscsi_tcp libiscsi scsi_tran sport_iscsi bridge virtio_balloon parport_pc parport floppy psmouse pcspkr serio _raw e1000 joydev evdev thermal button processor sg scsi_wait_scan virtio_blk dm _mod usbhid hid usb_storage libusual sd_mod sr_mod ide_disk ide_generic ide_cd c drom ide_core ata_piix pata_acpi ata_generic libata scsi_mod uhci_hcd usbcore i2 c_piix4 i2c_core virtio_pci virtio_ring virtio isofs msdos fat Pid: 2914, comm: modprobe Not tainted 2.6.24-8-pve #1 ovz005 RIP: 0010:[<ffffffff884532b0>] [<ffffffff884532b0>] :kvm_amd:svm_hardware_enabl e+0x80/0xe0 RSP: 0018:ffff81001dcb5de8 EFLAGS: 00010006 RAX: 0000000000001d01 RBX: 0000000000000010 RCX: 00000000c0000080 RDX: 0000000000000000 RSI: ffffffff88458b26 RDI: 0000000000000000 RBP: ffff81001d49b240 R08: 0000000000000001 R09: 0000000000000000 R10: 0000000000000000 R11: ffffffff88453230 R12: ffffffff88420050 R13: ffffffff8845c100 R14: ffffffff8845c100 R15: ffffc200001f8618 FS: 00007fe49ff576e0(0000) GS:ffffffff80628000(0000) knlGS:0000000000000000 CS: 0010 DS: 0000 ES: 0000 CR0: 000000008005003b ...
