I am trying to experiment with the X86KvmCPU to see whether it will speed up my 
simulations through checkpointing but I'm having trouble (as I thought) getting 
it to work. First of all, I'm using VMWare to virtualise Linux on Ubuntu 16.04 
LTS and in the Processor settings, I have enabled


Virtualize Intel VT-x/EPT or AMD-V/RVI

Virtualize CPU performance counters


I installed kvm and ran kvm-ok which reported back


INFO: /dev/kvm exists
KVM acceleration can be used


Then when I try to run a simulation in SE mode using


build/X86/gem5.fast configs/example/se.py -c 
tests/test-progs/hello/bin/x86/linux/hello --cpu-type=X86KvmCPU


It generates information then ends in a backtrace with the panic error


panic: KVM: Failed to enter virtualized mode (hw reason: 0x80000021)


My problem is the same as

Does anyone know what I should do?


Thanks
