    Hi Community,

    I am testing bhyve from FreeBSD 12.1 RELEASE.

    My environment:
    - CPU: AMD Ryze 3900X
    - Mainboard: MSI MEG ACE X570, Default settings, latest BIOS 7C35v18
    - RAM: G.Skill RipJaws V DIMM Kit 64GB, DDR4-3200, CL16-18-18-38
    - GPU: Sapphire Nitro RX 5700XT

    I checked the settings in the BIOS. Virtualization options are enabled.
    SVM is enabled.

    I follow the instruction from the FreeBSD handbook „21.7. FreeBSD as a
    Host with bhyve“.

    When I run
          kldload vmm
    I got an output that SVM is disabled by BIOS. When I check the BIOS it
    is enabled.


What happens if you load it from /boot/load.conf

When I add
        vmm_load="YES"
in /boot/loader.conf I can see the following with dmesg after a reboot

SVM: disabled by BIOS.
module_register_init: MOD_LOAD (vmm, 0xffffffff8264dd20, 0) error 6


Also you shouldn't have to turn on kvm (I do have it turned on but it should not be required).

Bhyve has a upper limit of 16 vm's that it can run at once but I don't think this is based on core count of the processor.


    When I try to start the VM with the example script I got the output
          vm_create device not configured

    Did I miss something to configure?

    Does anyone has a Ryzen CPU and a actual MSI mainboard successfully run
    bhyve?


I have two Ryzen 5 2600X/MSI machines as far I can tell looking at the specs (and what I remember when I was deciding to get a 3900X or 2600X) there is no practical difference, except for core count, from the point of view of virtualization/bhyve.  One machine is a MSI B450 Tomahawk and the other is MSI B450 Gaming Pro.   Both machines run bhyve with out any problem (one of them is my main home office server with 3 vm's on it [windows and 2 FreeBSD]) and the other is my primary desktop machine and used for R&D on PetiteCloud (which is a web interface to bhyve and qemu).

Thank you. Good to know that bhye is working with AMD CPUs, Mainboards and chipsets.
