[libvirt-users] 回复： [libvirt] xml config nested

[放牛班的春天]

thanks your mail，now below：


If the KVM supports nested VMX and QEMU starts with the arguments -enable-kvm and
    -cpu ..., + vmx, then the LOCK bit of the guest MSR_IA32_FEATURE_CONTROL and
    Enable VMX out of SMX operation bit will be set.


Well, I should add -enable-kvm parameters of the document which xml position, Exactly speaking, how to amend xml configuration file?

NB, in future please don't CC all possible mailing lists at once.
Just pick the most appropriate mailing list for your question. I've
dropped libvirt-list & libvirt-announce from the CC, since this is
a question most suited for libvirt-users.

Yes, that's the key guest configuration step - exposing the 'vmx' feature
to the guest.

In addition to that though, you need to make sure the kvm-intel kernel
module in your host has the "nested=1" parameter set.

eg in /etc/modprobe.d/kvm.conf you want

 options kvm_intel nested=1

If loaded correctly you should see

# cat /sys/module/kvm_intel/parameters/nested 
Y

if it says "N", then nested VMX will be disabled.

Daniel
