i don't understand this in detail, but since the last update of qemu i can't start my virtual win7 machine. i use gnome-boxes 3.24. qemu 2.8 works, 2.9 leads to this: Preformatted text(gnome-boxes:4301): Boxes-WARNING **: machine.vala:611: Failed to start win7: Unable to start domain: the CPU is incompatible with host CPU: Host CPU does not provide required features: monitor, rdtscp, svm
i ask, because i also use an phenom 2 x4 and if this is the bug i don't need to opan a new one. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of qemu- devel-ml, which is subscribed to QEMU. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1318091 Title: Perfctr MSRs not available to Guest OS on AMD Phenom II Status in QEMU: New Bug description: The AMD Phenom(tm) II X4 965 Processor (family 16, model 4, stepping 3) has the 4 architecturally supported perf counters at MSRs. The selectors are c001000-c001003, and the counters are c001004-c001007. I've verified that the MSRs are there and working by manually setting the MSRs with msr-tools to count cycles. The processor does not support the extended perfctr or the perfctr_nb. These are in cpuid leaf 8000_0001. Qemu also sees that these cpuid flags are not set, when I try launching with -cpu host,perfctr_core,check. However, this flag is only for the extended perfctr MSRs, which also happen to map the original four counters at c0010200. When I run a Guest OS, that OS is unable to use the perf counter registers from c001000-7. rdmsr and wrmsr complete, but the results are always 0. By contrast, a wrmsr to one of the c0010200 registers causes a general protection fault (as it should, since those aren't supported).
