Warnings tend to be ignored and are generally a sign that QEMU isn't doing the right thing. Sometimes we have no choice, but I don't think that's the case here. As far as I can see, we have only two possibilities here: 1) The host can run a VM that behaves exactly as requested on the command-line (no warning required). 2) The host can't run the requested configuration (fatal error, not a warning). -- Eduardo
