Now I can run an L2 guest (nested guest) using the kvm kernel module of kernel 3.12 However, I am facing a new problem when trying to build and use kvm kernel module from git://git.kiszka.org/kvm-kmod.git: L1 (nested hypervisor) cannot boot L2 and the graphic console of virt-manager hangs displaying 'Booting from Hard Disk...'. L1 still runs fine. Loading kvm_intel with 'emulate_invalid_guest_state=0' in L0 does not solve the problem. I have also tried with different kernel versions: 3.12.0, 3.12.8 and 3.13.0 without success. Can you give me some suggestions?
