(It works anyway.) However, -cpu qemu,eimm=on,ldisp=on,stckf=on,msa-base=on,msa3-base=on,msa4-base=on,msa5-base=on,kimd-sha-512=on gives qemu-system-s390x: can't apply global qemu-s390-cpu.kimd-sha-512=on: Feature 'kimd-sha-512' is not available for CPU model 'z900', it was introduced with later models. which is a bit confusing. So I'm wondering whether providing msa5-base without the providing the algorithms above is sane - or whether it is just enough to satisfy some kernels. [Double-checking the various dependencies looks impossible without access to IBM doc, anyway - I just hope you got it right back then :)]
