For armhf (arm32) kernel, only CORTEX-A7 and CORTEXT-A15 support KVM, for Pi's cpu, they don't support KVM for armhf kernel.
** Summary changed: - CONFIG_KVM is disabled for linux-raspi2 (aarch64 and armhf) + CONFIG_KVM is disabled for linux-raspi2 (aarch64) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux-raspi2 in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1783961 Title: CONFIG_KVM is disabled for linux-raspi2 (aarch64) Status in linux-raspi2 package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Status in linux-raspi2 source package in Eoan: Fix Committed Bug description: In contrast to the Linux kernel for x86_64, the CONFIG_KVM option is disabled for the "linux-raspi2" kernel (version 4.15.0-1016-raspi2 aarch64) on Ubuntu 18.04. This prevents running QEMU with the -enable-kvm option to use hardware virtualization capabilities of the CPU. I have recompiled the kernel with CONFIG_KVM set and could successfully run QEMU with -enable-kvm on my Raspberry Pi 3 B+ afterwards. In my opinion, there is no reason for not activating CONFIG_KVM in the official raspi2 kernel.
