Hi Asraa, Cgroups V2 is supported since libvirt 4.9.0 for cpu, cpuacct, io, memory controllers. In libvirt 5.2.0 we added support for cpuset with kernel 5.0. There is still no support for devices controller but that one is not mandatory to run KVM/QEMU VMs as there is a bug in kernel that leaks some resources. Pavel
