Your qemu process should have kvm file descriptors open in /proc/<pid>fds/
and you should see a debug area in /sys/kernel/debug/s390dbf/kvm-<pid>/

Betreff: Re: KVM on IBM System z

Hi all,

one more question regarding KVM on IBM System z:
Is there a way to check wether KVM is using hardware virtualisation (SIE 
instruction)?

I installed SLES 11 and virt-host-validate is missing. In FC 17 it returns only 
software virtualisation:

  QEMU: Checking for hardware virtualization                                 : 
WARN (Only emulated 
CPUs are available, performance will be significantly limited)
  QEMU: Checking for device /dev/vhost-net                                   : 
PASS
  QEMU: Checking for device /dev/net/tun                                     : 
PASS
   LXC: Checking for Linux >= 2.6.26                                         : 
PASS

But i think virt-host-validate in FC17 has no support for s390x. So i want to 
check wether SIE is used or not.

Kind regards,

Tobias.
