Subject: [PATCH i-g-t 01/10] tools/vmtb: Update QEMU parameters
Date: Tue, 24 Feb 2026 08:50:18 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260224075027.2409675-2-adam.miszczak@linux.intel.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260224075027.2409675-1-adam.miszczak@linux.intel.com>
1. Enable SSH access to VM/Guest OS
Add QEMU options to open guest SSH connection:
- enable default emulated NIC
- redirect host's TCP port 10000+N connections to
guest's SSH server on port 22
(where N is booted VM number, starting from 0)
For example, login to VM0 (from host) as:
$ ssh -p 10000 gta@localhost
2. Enable migration based on VFIO driver
Set 'enable-migration' option introducing QEMU VF migration support.
VF migration is supported by a vendor specific VFIO driver (xe-vfio-pci).
In case of regular 'vfio-pci', QEMU command option 'enable-migration'
should not be explicitly enabled to prevent VM start failure:
'vfio 0000:00:02.1: VFIO migration is not supported in kernel'
3. Disable QEMU emulated VGA card
Disable standard emulated VGA on QEMU VMs to avoid issues
emerging from a bochs DRM driver.
Standard VGA is enumerated as PCI device BDF 00:02.0
on minor 0 (drm/card0) - this causes troubles with VirtualMachine class
reserving card0 for passed VF.
Also, bochs driver obscures guest dmesg with verbose debug logs.
