I found this thread while trying auto-bisection for LP#1834613:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1834613
When trying the options suggested by Laurent here:
https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/qemu-devel/2019-06/msg06209.html
this one hangs:
$ qemu-system-ppc64 \
-kernel vmlinuz-vanilla \
-nographic -append "console=hvc0" \
-M cap-cfpc=broken,cap-sbbc=broken,cap-ibs=broken
but this one works:
$ qemu-system-ppc64 \
-kernel vmlinuz-vanilla \
-nographic -append "console=hvc0" \
-M pseries-3.1
