<p>Hi,</p>
<p>I have a Windows 7 SP1 Pro 64-bit VM which works fine on libvirt
2.3.0 and Qemu 2.7.0.</p>
<p>If I enable HyperV features (<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext"
href="https://libvirt.org/formatdomain.html#elementsFeatures">https://libvirt.org/formatdomain.html#elementsFeatures</a>)
like "relaxed", "spinlocks" etc - VM doesn't boot. "Starting
Windows" text appears for ~2 seconds (no flying dots, no logo) and
then it just goes to black screen. If I switch HyperV features
back off, it boots normally again.</p>
<p>Running VM with debuggging enabled (virsh --log win7_hyperv.log
--debug 1 start win7) doesn't produce any errors in the log. There
are no logs for that attempted boot in the guest either -
apparently it doesn't get to the point when Windows starts
logging.</p>
<p>Attaching VM xml definition (with HyperV features enabled).</p>
