------- Comment From lagar...@br.ibm.com 2019-02-06 06:59 EDT------- Just an additional information: starting with linux 4.20 and QEMU 3.1 one can created nested guests on RPT guests as well using kvm_hv (kvm_pr will not work with RPT).

I tried to set up 2nd level KVM on a P9 machine with kvm_pr but I run into (this is the series on commands I used on P8 btw): $ sudo modprobe kvm_pr modprobe: ERROR: could not insert 'kvm_pr': Input/output error Unfortunately there is no dmesg message (not even with level set to debug) or anything like it, so I'm stuck asking if P9 does not work with kvm_pr at all or if there are other constraints one should know? Note: while no more a problem for kvm_hv on P9 I disabled SMT but the issue persists.
