Hey QEMU dev group,
I have a few questions related to nesting QEMU processes, but first here is
my system setup:
- *HOST MACHINE:* GNU/Linux release 4.5.5 (KVM version follows), Distro
Fedora 24, x86_64 arch, supports Intel VT-x, QEMU 2.6.2, libvirt 1.3.3
- *GUEST ISO:* GNU/Linux release 2.6.13 (KVM version follows), Distro
SliTaz 4.0, i686 32-bit arch, does not appear to support Intel VT-x, QEMU
0.12.5, does not have libvirt
My question is primarily in response to this comment from your qemu-devel
threads:
"qemu-system-x86_64 does not support KVM on a 32-bit host", Daniel Berrange.
https://lists.nongnu.org/archive/html/qemu-devel/2012-09/msg02186.html
*[QUESTION#1.]*
Since my guest OS is 32-bit, do I have to use qemu-system-i386 –enable-kvm
on my host so that the guest can create a QEMU process of its own
supporting KVM? Or are there additional qemu-system-i386 arguments I need
from my host: –cpu <???> -machine <???>
*[QUESTION#2.]*
Since my guest OS does not support Intel VT-x, can I force this with
qemu-system-i386 arguments? I’m not sure how exactly to do this.
Thanks,
-Joey
