Re: [libvirt] [PATCHv10 0/4] Introduce x86 Cache Monitoring Technology (CMT)

Hi John, The issue mentioned is generated by a -1 returned by qemuDomainGetIOThreadsMon. Further, it is caused by a -1 returned by virQEMUCapsGet: 6174 if (!virQEMUCapsGet(priv->qemuCaps, QEMU_CAPS_OBJECT_IOTHREAD)) { 6175 virReportError(VIR_ERR_CONFIG_UNSUPPORTED, "%s", 6176 _("IOThreads not supported with this binary")); 6177 goto endjob; 6178 } By checking qemuCaps->flags, it seems the bit of QEMU_CAPS_OBJECT_IOTHREAD(176) is not set. (gdb) call virBitmapFormat(qemuCaps->flags) $4 = 0x7f08a4004cb0 "13,33,46,50,54-55,58,61-64,66-70,72-73,77-78,80,87-88,92-93,95-97,99,102-110,112,114,119-121,128-131,141-142,146,148-149,151-156,158-161,165,167,174-175,180,182,188,193-198,210,214,221-222,225,250,255"...
