The kvm guest kernel starts, but hangs in calibrate_delay (at least that's what info registers in qemu monitor suggests). Ayn ideas ? Thomas. -- Crap can work.

The current KVM guest kernel is actually a Trap-and-emul guest kernel. VZ based KVM uses the same binary with the host one, so does TCG. TE KVM is current unmaintained. I'll try to get a malta and do some test. Thanks. - Jiaxun > > Thomas. > > -- > Crap can work. Given enough thrust pigs will fly, but it's not necessarily a > good idea.

I got remote access of a CoreLV malta but no luck to boot kernel as well. + Huacai as KVM/MIPS Maintainer. + Philippe as QEMU/MIPS Maintainer. + qemu-devel for wider audience.

For QEMU the situation is: commit 1fa639e5618029e944ac68d27e32a99dcb85a349 Author: James Hogan <jhogan@kernel.org> Date: Sat Dec 21 15:53:06 2019 +0000 MAINTAINERS: Orphan MIPS KVM CPUs I haven't been active for 18 months, and don't have the hardware set up to test KVM for MIPS, so mark it as orphaned and remove myself as maintainer. Hopefully somebody from MIPS can pick this up. commit 15d983dee95edff1dc4c0bed71ce02fff877e766 Author: Aleksandar Markovic <aleksandar.qemu.devel@gmail.com> Date: Wed Jul 1 20:25:58 2020 +0200 MAINTAINERS: Adjust MIPS maintainership (add Huacai & Jiaxun) Huacai Chen and Jiaxun Yang step in as new energy. commit ca263c0fb9f33cc746e6e3d968b7db80072ecf86 Author: Aleksandar Markovic <aleksandar.qemu.devel@gmail.com> Date: Wed Oct 7 22:37:21 2020 +0200 MAINTAINERS: Remove myself I have been working on project other than QEMU for some time, and would like to devote myself to that project. It is impossible for me to find enough time to perform maintainer's duties with needed meticulousness and patience. I don't have local hardware to test KVM. We have plan to add VZ testing on Loongson hardware. For the rest I'll defer on Huacai and Jiaxun, as long as it is useful to them, it is not a big burden for QEMU. (IOW +1 for TE removal.)
