Like this? upstream qemu | default |-enable-kvm ----------------+-----------+----------- KVM available | disabled | enabled KVM unavailable | disabled | fail qemu-kvm | default |-enable-kvm| -no-kvm ----------------+-----------+-----------+----------- KVM available | enabled* | enabled | disabled KVM unavailable | disabled | fail | disabled * differs from upstream
