qemu-system-ppc64le fails with kvm acceleration
(Suspected glibc issue!)
qemu-system-ppc64(le) fails when invoked with kvm acceleration with error "illegal instruction"
> qemu-system-ppc64(le) -M pseries,accel=kvm
Illegal instruction (core dumped)
In dmesg:
Facility 'SCV' unavailable (12), exception at 0x7624f8134c0c, MSR=900000000280f033
Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
qemu 5.2.0
Linux kernel 5.11
glibc 2.33
all latest updates as of submitting the bug report
How reproducible:
Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Run qemu with kvm acceleration
Actual results:
Illegal instruction
Expected results:
Normal VM execution
Additional info:
The machine is a Raptor Talos II Lite with a Sforza V1 8-core, but was also observed on a Raptor Blackbird with the same processor.
This was also observed on Fedora 34 beta, which uses glibc 2.33
Also tested on ArchPOWER (unofficial port of Arch Linux for ppc64le) with glibc 2.33
Fedora 33 and Ubuntu 20.10, both using glibc 2.32 do not have this issue, and downgrading the Linux kernel from 5.11 to 5.4 LTS on ArchPOWER solved the problem. Kernel 5.9 and 5.10 have the same issue when combined with glibc2.33
