AESNI and guest hosts

2012-02-12 Thread Ryan Brown
Host/KVM server is running linux 3.2.4 (Debian wheezy), and guest kernel is running 3.2.5. The cpu is an E3-1230, but for some reason its not able to supply the guest with aesni. Is there a config option or is there something we're missing?         x86_64     Westmere     Intel
