Alternatively, I think it might help if Bryce passed the "ignore_msrs=Y"
parameter to the "kvm" kernel module.

(If it's indeed nested virt, then I think passing this param to the L0
kernel module would be more important than passing it to the L1 one.)

It's a bug in qemu.  I'm not sure exactly which qemu bug but if you
search for "error: failed to set MSR 0x48f" you'll find a few
references which seem to be related to nested virt:

You can work around it (although it'll be slow) using:

[Libguestfs] Image Mounting Issue

2022-10-01 Thread Bryce Zimmer
See the attached output of libguestfs-test-tool.
I'm trying to mount an image to eve-ng VM using their instructions and ran into 
an error.

These are the instructions I was following.
https://www.eve-ng.net/index.php/documentation/howtos/2822-2/

Please let me know if you have any questions or if I can help in any way.
