Package: qemu-system-x86
Version: 2.1+dfsg-5
Severity: important
kvm fails to start when specifying any cpu type. The user running the
kvm/qemu command has been placed in the kvm group and the cpu model name
when doing cat /proc/cpuinfo in the VM instance shows "Qemu Virtual CPU
version 2.1.2"
(albeit it says vendor_id "AuthenticAMD" but the native processor is
actually intel)
The system can boot but it is very slow.
The command that I used:
qemu-system-x86_64 -m 1024 type=kvm64 $options
I've got 2.1+dfsg-4 on another system which doesn't exhibit this
performance and cpu problem
((
modprobe kvm and kvm-intel was applied
modinfo kvm shows
filename: /lib/modules/3.16-2-amd64/kernel/arch/x86/kvm/kvm.ko
kernel here is linux-image-3.16-2-amd64
))
"qemu-system-x86_64: -machine type=kvm64: Unsupported machine type
Use -machine help to list supported machines"
but kvm -cpu help shows support for it
x86 kvm64 Common KVM processor
there's something definitely wrong because cat /proc/cpuinfo should be
saying intel instead of amd
please look into this, thanks
