When I run 'virsh capabilities | virsh cpu-baseline /dev/stdin I get:
<cpu match='exact'>
<model>Penryn</model>
<vendor>Intel</vendor>
<feature policy='require' name='hypervisor'/>
<feature policy='require' name='vmx'/>
<feature policy='require' name='ss'/>
<feature policy='require' name='vme'/>
<feature policy='disable' name='sse4.1'/>
</cpu>
So the 'vmx' flag is there. kvm-ok was already installed on my guest. It tells
me:
INFO: /dev/kvm exists
KVM acceleration can be used
So we're good there, too. modprobing kvm and kvm_intel works now as well.
qemu-kvm is up and running. It seems that everything is set up for my Ubuntu
guest to use the host's hardware virtualization!
Thanks,
Daniel
