I am trying to add KVM to a custom build linux machine. Linux is built using buildroot and all the packages are pulled in as needed.
For the moment I just want to create/manage VMs using qemu and worry about libvirt later.
So far I added qemu-kvm-1.2.0 to the build, compiled all necessary, AFAIK, virtualization options into the kernel (3.18.21).
qemu-create seems to work; it creates the VM
qemu-system-x86_46 creashes:
gettime: Internal system call
Internal timer error: aborting
This is everything I see in the console.
The host architecture is x86, kvm-intel is compiled into the kernel...
I checked /var/log/messages but there does not seem to be anything related in there, just this:
"kvm: zapping shadow pages from mmio generation wraparound"
Any ideas?
