Re: [Qemu-ppc] [Qemu-devel] [Bug 1674925] Re: Qemu PPC64 kvm no display if --device virtio-gpu-pci is selected

[luigi burdo]

Hi Thomas,

just exit like it is an error with a wrong option. 

the output is only this   qemu-system-ppc64: KVM and IRQ_XICS capability must be present for in-kernel XICS 

Same is if i add all the options i have the seme error.

look like qemu need for run in kvm  a  kernel with XICS option enabled and XICS  is present only from ibm power 5 to up if i remember good.

After work i can test it if needed on Qoriq e5500 too for check if there is the same issue on an emb ppc64 processor.

Ciao

Does it exit, or just hang afterwards? Was this with or without --device
virtio-gpu-pci option? Do you get any output if you run QEMU with
"-nographic" instead?
