Instead using memdev works: -object memory-backend-ram,id=mem0,size=512M -numa node,memdev=mem0,nodeid=0 This works fine and is in qemu since quite some time. Properly documented since 2.12 but actually available since 2.1 (2014) The argument for this test is in test/TEST-36-NUMAPOLICY/test.sh QEMU_OPTIONS="-numa node,nodeid=0" Fixing that to a new form should help.
