I see your command line parameters already contain "-object memory-backend-file share=on", so this error message is not accurate. Should this message be altered to mention things like what this patch does? > qemu-system-riscv64: vhost_set_mem_table failed: Interrupted system call (4) > qemu-system-riscv64: unable to start vhost net: 4: falling back on userspace > virtio > > Note that, before starting the kvm-acceled QEMU VM, following > temporarily unaccepted QEMU patches should be used: > https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/qemu-devel/2021-08/msg02516.html > > This error was made bacause default main_mem is used to be registered typo: because > as the system memory, other memory cannot be initialized.
