Dear Maintainer,
On riscv64 the libvirtd.service shows an error
Host sysinfo extraction not supported on this platform: Function not implemented
libvirtd.service: Deactivated successfully.
This is due to a bug in src/util/virsysinfo.c where the wrong symbol is used to
detect the RISC-V architecture.
The bug makes virt-manager unusable on RISC-V.
In Ubuntu, the attached patch was applied to achieve the following:
* d/p/u/virsysinfo-fix-RISC-V-detection.patch: Fix compiler macro to
correctly detect RISC-V. (LP: #2095488)
Thanks for considering the patch.
Best regards
Heinrich
