Christian, I checked with Breno and while nested virtualization is not something that they encourage use of in a production environment, it is used for testing purposes. They would like to have this working with Ubuntu and have stated it only requires a small fix to qemu. If possible, could you

Yep, for some reason, the discussion stalled. Thanks for working on this bug. HTM bits should be cleared on nested virt, anyway. Also, HTM is causing other components to fail on nested virt like rtas_errd daemon, which does PCI Hotplug. -- You received this bug notification because you are a

kvm_pr is not "officially/fully/formally" supported for production use, but this mode is extensively used by OpenStack Continuous Integration and it is the testing ground for many other projects. This statement of "not supported" has been changing and Power ecosystem depends on kvm_pr for platform

Hi, I mostly run with cloud-images so I haven't seen this yet (I always prefer uvtool-libvirt to virt-install). Thank you already for your good summary! -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu.

Sounds like your problem only occurs on older versions of Ubuntu, so moving this to the QEMU-Ubuntu bug tracker. ** Project changed: qemu => qemu (Ubuntu) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu.
