Dear libvirt,
Is there a way to tell a KVM/QEMU guest managed by libvirt to start
with the "-no-kvm-irqchip" argument?
I have some FreeBSD 7 guests with timing issues, and if I try to
start the VMs manually with -no-kvm-irqchip, the timing issues go
away (the only known workaround right now).
However, if the guest is managed by libvirt, I have found no way to
pass this command line option.
I'm running libvirt 0.6.4 on Ubuntu 9.04
As a hack, you can point the XML file to a wrapper script instead of
the KVM binary, where the script would contain e.g.:
#!/bin/sh
exec /usr/bin/kvm "$@" -no-kvm-irqchip
