If you're using kvm-hv.ko, onl= y "-cpu host" is possible qemu-system-ppc64: kvm_init_vcpu: kvm_arch_init_vcpu failed (0): Invalid = argument Appending '-cpu host' will throw another error: qemu-system-ppc64: invalid chip model 'host' for powernv9 machine The root cause is that in IBM PowerPC we have different specs for the bar= e-metal and the guests. The bare-metal follows OPAL, the guests follow PAPR. The = kernel KVM modules presented in the ppc kernels implements PAPR. This means that= we can't use KVM accel when using the powernv machine, which is the emulatio= n of the bare-metal host. All that said, let's give a more informative error in this case.
