Hi,
I use qem-kvm version 1.1.2 on debian testing with kernel 3.6.8. On this
kernel the kvm-modules load ok:
$ lsmod | grep kvm
kvm_intel 114592 0
kvm 219460 1 kvm_intel
My hardware should support this also :
$ egrep --color "vmx|svm" /proc/cpuinfo
flags : fpu vme de pse tsc msr pae mce cx8 apic sep mtrr pge mca cmov
pat pse36 clflush dts acpi mmx fxsr sse sse2 ss ht tm pbe nx lm
constant_tsc arch_perfmon pebs bts aperfmperf pni dtes64 monitor ds_cpl
vmx est tm2 ssse3 cx16 xtpr pdcm lahf_lm dtherm tpr_shadow vnmi flexpriority
I tried last week to upgrade to kernel 3.7.8 (trying to solve another
problem), downloaded from kernel.org. As I get, during boot, an error
"Failed to load module kvm_intel" , I checked the kernel config and to
my surprise I can not select the kvm nor kvm_intel modules anymore
during configuration in menuconfig on this new kernel. This is what I see:
--- Virtualization │ │
│ │ <M> Host kernel accelerator for virtio net (EXPERIMENTAL) │ │
│ │ < > Linux hypervisor example code │ │
│ │
Are these modules kvm /kvm_intel no longer there/needed? Do these
modules depend on another option in kernel ?
I do see newest qemu version is already at 1.4.
Any pointer is appreciated.
Thanks and best regards,
Johan
