Sorry, I check it again:
Ihe issue I met is because of my qemu's mis-backport,
In qemu, kvm_arch_get_supported_cpuid() will set the feature bit:
if (function == KVM_CPUID_FEATURES && reg == R_EDX) {
ret |= KVM_HINTS_DEDICATED;
found = 1;
}
But I have mis-ported the KVM_HINTS_DEDICATED and KVM_HINTS_REALTIME macro; And it lead to
the error I met;
And it's right that kernel don't expose this ability!
Sorry again!
