Subject: [PATCH] runqemu: Use correct kvm CPU options for qemux86* with kvm
Date: Wed, 25 Sep 2013 21:59:11 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1380142751.18603.344.camel@ted> (raw)

The existing -cpu host option caused kernel panics when people attempted to use
the kvm option. After research and discussion, the best options appear to
be the kvm32/kvm64 cpu types so lets use these instead. These resolve
the kernel issues for me.

[YOCTO #3908]
