Update to v4.1.0. Also includes other major packaging changes as follows: There is a new package maintenance workflow - see README.PACKAGING for details. The sibling packages qemu-linux-user and qemu-testsuite are now created with the Build Service's MultiBuild feature. This also necessitates combining the qemu-linux-user changelog content back into qemu's. Luckily the delta there is quite small. Note that the qemu spec file is now that much busier, but added section markers should help reduce the confusion. Also qemu is being enabled for RISCV host compatibility, so some changes are related to that as well.

POST SLES 15 SP1 QEMU/KVM RELATED SUPPORT STATEMENTS
|
|
|
|
Overview
|
|
--------
|
|
|
|
The QEMU based packages included with SLES 15 SP1 provide a large variety of
|
|
features, from the very latest customer requests to features of questionable
|
|
quality or value. The linux kernel includes components which contribute KVM
|
|
virtualization features as well. This document was created to assist the user
|
|
in deciding which features can be relied upon to build enterprise class
|
|
virtualization solutions. KVM based virtualization for x86 (Intel 64/AMD64),
|
|
for IBM System z (s390x), for Power8 Systems (ppc64le) and for the ARM64
|
|
architecture (AArch64) are offered at the L3 (full support) level. The bulk
|
|
of this document deals with L3 supported features and is primarily x86
|
|
centric. This document should be considered a companion to the standard
|
|
virtualization documentation delivered with the product.
|
|
|
|
KVM is implemented in linux kernel modules which enable the linux kernel to
|
|
function as an integral part of the KVM hypervisor. The hypervisor-guest
|
|
interaction is managed by QEMU through the /dev/kvm ioctl interface. The linux
|
|
host assists in the virtualization of storage, networking and display
|
|
resources as well as allowing direct hardware passthrough of PCI and USB
|
|
devices. Linux memory and cpu management features are used by QEMU/KVM to
|
|
enable guests to share those host resources as efficiently as possible.
|
|
|
|
QEMU is a primary component of KVM based virtualization. The legacy qemu-kvm
|
|
program is available for continuity with pre SLES 12 usage, including in
|
|
libvirt domain xml references. The QEMU emulator binaries qemu-system-x86_64
|
|
and qemu-system-i386 (x86 host) are now the primary programs to use to access
|
|
KVM virtualization. When using these programs, the -machine option accel=kvm
|
|
(or its alias -enable-kvm) must be specified for KVM acceleration to be
|
|
used by the guest. Although Xen uses QEMU for virtualization as well, this
|
|
document does not identify Xen supported features.
|
|
|
|
Libvirt is the preferred means of accessing QEMU/KVM functionality and is
|
|
documented elsewhere. This document focuses on the features and direct usage
|
|
of QEMU/KVM as provided by the QEMU based packages.
|
|
|
|
Major QEMU/KVM Supported Features
|
|
---------------------------------
|
|
|
|
- KVM virtualization is accomplished by using the QEMU program in KVM
|
|
acceleration mode. KVM acceleration requires that both guest and host have
|
|
the same fundamental architecture.
|
|
|
|
- Guest images created under previous QEMU versions are supported by machine
|
|
version compatibilities built into more recent QEMU versions.
|
|
|
|
- For ease of use, the QEMU program has defaults which represent traditional
|
|
usage patterns.
|
|
|
|
- Guest virtual machine characteristics are specified by a combination of
|
|
internal defaults, options provided on the QEMU program command-line, runtime
|
|
configurations set via the monitor interfaces and optional config files. The
|
|
runtime control of a VM is effected either through the Human Monitor
|
|
"Protocol" (HMP), or the JSON based programmatical QEMU Monitor Protocol (QMP)
|
|
interface. For QMP details, see qemu-qmp-ref man page.
|
|
Since a KVM guest runs in the context of a normal linux process, some types
|
|
of execution controls are managed with linux tools.
|
|
|
|
- Various standard vCPU types are available, along with the ability to specify
|
|
individual CPU features visible to the guest.
|
|
|
|
- QEMU incorporates a SEABIOS based system BIOS and iPXE based PXE ROMs, which
|
|
allow boot options common to physical systems, along with other features
|
|
tailored to virtualization. Various VGABIOS ROMs, also from the SEABIOS
|
|
project, are also included. A UEFI based guest boot environment is also
|
|
available by using the firmware provided by the qemu-ovmf-x86_64 package.
|
|
|
|
- Some QEMU messages have been localized to various languages. This is provided
|
|
by the optional qemu-lang package. Keyboard mappings for various nationalities
|
|
is also provided.
|
|
|
|
- Virtual machine lifecycle controls include startup through the system BIOS or
|
|
kernel boot, ACPI or legacy based shutdown, execution pausing, the saving and
|
|
restoring of machine state or disk state, VM migration to another host, and
|
|
miscellaneous controls available through the "monitors" mentioned above.
|
|
|
|
- Guest execution state may be "moved" in both time (save/restore) and space
|
|
(static and live migration). These migrations or save/restore operations can
|
|
take place either from certain prior SLES versioned hosts to a SLES 15 SP1
|
|
host or between hosts of the same version. Certain other restrictions also
|
|
apply.
|
|
|
|
- Security considerations include seccomp2 based sandboxing, vTPM, privileged
|
|
helpers and a security model which allows running guests as a non-root user.
|
|
|
|
- QEMU/KVM supports a wide range of operating systems within the VMs. See the
|
|
online SUSE documentation for supported OS's. Windows guests can optionally be
|
|
accelerated with QEMU/KVM provided Hyper-V hypercalls, or with paravirtual
|
|
drivers from the SUSE Virtual Machine Driver Pack. Linux includes a number of
|
|
paravirtual drivers as well.
|
|
|
|
- QEMU provides best effort reuse of existing disk images, including those with
|
|
systems installed, through geometry probing. Also disk images produced by
|
|
other popular virtualization technologies may be imported into QEMU supported
|
|
storage formats. These QEMU formats include features which exploit the
|
|
benefits of virtualization.
|
|
|
|
- Memory, cpu and disk space overcommit are possible and can be beneficial when
|
|
done responsibly. Additional management of these resources comes in the form
|
|
of memory ballooning or hotplug, host KSM, vcpu hot-add, online disk resizing,
|
|
trim, discard and hole punching.
|
|
|
|
- Guest performance is enhanced through the use of virtio devices, various disk
|
|
caching modes, network acceleration via the vhost-net kernel module, multi-
|
|
queue network transmit capabilities, host transparent huge pages (THP) and
|
|
direct hugetlb usage. Physical PCI and USB devices may also be passed through
|
|
to the guest, including SR-IOV VF's.
|
|
|
|
- The guest UI is accessable via GTK, VNC, Spice, and serial (including curses
|
|
TUI) interfaces.
|
|
|
|
- Guest timekeeping is supported in a variety of ways, including a paravirtual
|
|
clocksource, and options for the various guest clocks for how to handle the
|
|
timeslicing of the guest's execution on the host.
|
|
|
|
- Guest OS's interact with virtualized hardware including a choice of either
|
|
older or more recent x86 system chipsets, system devices and buses, and a
|
|
variety of common storage and networking emulated devices. SMBIOS and ACPI
|
|
table details can be customized.
|
|
|
|
- In addition to the para-virtualized devices already mentioned, other devices
|
|
and infrastructure designed to avoid virtualization "problem areas" are
|
|
available such as SPICE graphics, vmmouse emulation, tablet style pointer
|
|
interfaces and virtio based UI interfaces.
|
|
|
|
- A built-in user-mode network (SLIRP) stack is available.
|
|
|
|
- Portions of the host file system may be shared with a guest by using virtFS.
|
|
|
|
- A guest "agent" is available for SLES 15 SP1 KVM guests via the
|
|
qemu-guest-agent package. This allows some introspection and control of the
|
|
guest OS environment from the host.
|
|
|
|
QEMU/KVM Technology Previews
|
|
----------------------------
|
|
|
|
- Nested VMX and SVM virtualization is possible.
|
|
|
|
- All features indicated as not being supported in this document fall under the
|
|
Technology Preview definition contained in the main product's release notes.
|
|
|
|
Noteworthy QEMU/KVM Unsupported Features
|
|
----------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
- Note that some features are unsupported simply due to lack of validation. If
|
|
an existing feature is desired, but not marked supported, let SUSE know about
|
|
your requirements.
|
|
|
|
- The TCG "acceleration" mode may be helpful for problem isolation, but
|
|
otherwise presents insufficient benefit and stability.
|
|
|
|
- Use of -cpu host is not supported in all host/guest configurations.
|
|
|
|
- GlusterFS integration is not enabled.
|
|
|
|
Deprecated, Superseded, Modified and Dropped Features
|
|
-----------------------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
- http://wiki.qemu-project.org/Features/LegacyRemoval
|
|
This website tracks feature deprecation and removal at the upstream
|
|
development level. Our qemu package inherits this community direction, but be
|
|
aware that we can and will deviate as needed. Those deviations and additional
|
|
information can be found in this section. Feature deprecation is also tracked
|
|
in Appendix B of the qemu-doc.* files installed with the qemu package.
|
|
|
|
- When no video adapter is specified, the default used is stdvga. This differs
|
|
from the default of prior releases which was cirrus. The cirrus adapter was
|
|
considered too outdated to continue to use as the default.
|
|
|
|
- The deprecated windows drivers (win-virtio-drivers.iso) are no longer provided.
|
|
The Virtual Machine Driver Pack is the supported way to get virtio drivers for
|
|
Windows guests.
|
|
|
|
- The use of ",boot=on" for virtio disks is no longer needed since the bios used
|
|
supports the virtio block interface directly. In fact, its usage may cause
|
|
problems, and is now considered deprecated.
|
|
|
|
- The use of "?" as a parameter to "-cpu", "-soundhw", "-device", "-M",
|
|
"-machine" and "-d" is now considered deprecated. Use "help"
|
|
instead.
|
|
|
|
- The use of "if=scsi" as a parameter to "-drive" does not work anymore with PC
|
|
machine types, as it created an obsolete SCSI controller model.
|
|
|
|
- Passthrough of a host floppy device is now considered deprecated.
|
|
|
|
- Use of aio=native without direct cache mode also being specified (cache=none,
|
|
cache=directsync, or cache.direct=on) is no longer allowed.
|
|
|
|
- The use of image encryption in qcow and qcow2 formats is now considered
|
|
deprecated.
|
|
Analysis has shown it to be weak encryption, in addition to suffering from
|
|
poor design. Images can easily be converted to a non-encrypted format.
|
|
|
|
- Use of acpi, boot-opts, and smp-opts in a -readconfig config file are now
|
|
considered deprecated. In the future those names will be standardized to
|
|
acpitable, boot, and smp respectively.
|
|
|
|
- When only a partial SMP topology is provided (ie only some of sockets, cores,
|
|
threads) the derived guest ABI is not guaranteed to be equivalent in future
|
|
versions.
|
|
|
|
- The previously supported machine types pc-0.12, pc-0.14 and pc-0.15 are now
|
|
deprecated.
|
|
|
|
- These previously supported command line options are now considered deprecated:
|
|
<none>
|
|
|
|
- These previously supported command line options are no longer supported:
|
|
<previously mentioned items have been moved to another category>
|
|
|
|
- These previously supported command line options are no longer recognized:
|
|
-balloon (use -device virtio-balloon instead)
|
|
-clock
|
|
-device ivshmem (use ivshmem-doorbell or ivshmem-plain instead)
|
|
-device pc-sysfw (no longer needed)
|
|
-device pci-assign, -device kvm-pci-assign (use -device vfio-pci instead)
|
|
-display sdl
|
|
-no-frame
|
|
-nodefconfig (use -no-user-config instead)
|
|
-sdl
|
|
-virtioconsole (use -device virtconsole instead)
|
|
|
|
- Specifying a cpu feature with both "+feature/-feature" and "feature=on/off"
|
|
will now cause a warning. The current behavior for this combination where
|
|
"+feature/-feature" wins over "feature=on/off", will be changed going forward
|
|
so that "+feature" and "-feature" will be synonyms for "feature=on" and
|
|
"feature=off" respectively.
|
|
|
|
- The previously supported blkdev-add QMP command has been flagged as lacking
|
|
and could possibly change syntax in the future.
|
|
|
|
- These previously unsupported command line options are now deprecated:
|
|
-bt
|
|
-no-kvm-pit
|
|
|
|
- The previously unsupported machine type pc-0.13 is now deprecated.
|
|
|
|
- The case of specified sockets, cores, and threads not matching the vcpu count
|
|
is no longer silently ignored. QEMU now requires that the topology match the
|
|
vcpu count.
|
|
|
|
- These previously unsupported command line options are no longer recognized:
|
|
-device at24c-eeprom
|

|
|
-tdf (note: mistakenly listed previously as supported)
|
|
-xen-create
|
|
|
|
- The previously unsupported machine types pc-0.10 and pc-0.11 are no longer
|
|
recognized.
|
|
|
|
- This previously supported QMP command is now deprecated:
|
|
cpu-add
|
|
query-cpus (use query-cpus-fast instead)
|
|
query-events
|
|
|
|
- This previously supported monitor command is now deprecated:
|
|
cpu-add
|
|
|
|
- These previously supported monitor commands are no longer recognized:
|
|
cpu_set
|
|
pci_add (use device_add instead)
|
|
pci_del (use device_del instead)
|
|
usb_add (use device_add instead)
|
|
usb_del (use device_del instead)
|
|
|
|
- These previously unsupported monitor command are now deprecated:
|
|
acl_add ...
|
|
acl_policy ...
|
|
acl_remove ...
|
|
acl_reset ...
|
|
acl_show ...
|
|
|
|
- These previously unsupported monitor commands are no longer recognized:
|
|
host_net_add
|
|
host_net_remove
|
|
|
|
- This previously unsupported QMP command is now supported under a new name:
|
|
x-blockdev-create (use blockdev-create instead)
|
|
x-input-send-event (use input-send-event instead)
|
|
|
|
- Due to the lack of migration support (mainly due to ahci interface issues)
|
|
and other unstable interface issues, earlier versions of the q35 machine type
|
|
are not supported in this release. The current q35 machine type is however now
|
|
fully supported.
|
|
|
|
- Due to upstream's decision to no longer fully support the qed storage format
|
|
going forward (since it really provides no benefit over qcow2 and is now no
|
|
longer actively maintained upstream), creating qed storage images is no longer
|
|
supported and it is highly discouraged to continue using existing qed images.
|
|
They should instead be converted to another supported format.
|
|
|
|
- If KVM Intel nested virtualization is enabled, and the guest is passed the vmx
|
|
feature, then live migration or save/restore is prohibited.
|
|
|
|
QEMU Command-Line and Monitor Syntax and Support
|
|
------------------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
- The QEMU program command-line syntax is as follows:
|
|
qemu-system-i386 [options] [disk_image]
|
|
qemu-system-x86_64 [options] [disk_image]
|
|
|
|
Where 'options' are taken from the options listed below, and 'disk_image' is
|
|
the file system reference to the x86 guest's primary IDE based hard disk
|
|
image. This image as well as those used with -drive or -cdrom, may be in the
|
|
raw (no format) or qcow2 storage formats, and may be located in files within
|
|
the host filesystem, logical volumes, host physical disks, or network based
|
|
storage. Read only media may also be accessed via URL style protocol
|
|
specifiers.
|
|
|
|
Note that as a general rule, as new command line options are added which serve
|
|
to replace an older option or interface, you are strongly encouraged to adapt
|
|
your usage to the new option. The new option is being introduced to provide
|
|
better functionality and usability going forward. In some cases existing
|
|
problems or even bugs in older interfaces cannot be fixed due to functional
|
|
expectations, but are resolved in the newer interface or option.
|
|
This advice includes moving to the most recent machine type (eg pc-i440fx-3.1
|
|
instead of pc-i440fx-2.11) if possible.
|
|
|
|
