Excuse me, but it is a bit unclear what you did.
Several questions arise:
a. Qemu now is able to emulate SVM on non-SVM old 32-bit processors ?
-or-
b. Qemu now is able to emulate SVM on SVM processors ?
c. Qemu now is able to emulate SVM on VT processors ?
d. How fast it works ? (theoretically, or benchmark results )
Anyway it's nice to hear about this feature.

Hi Alexey,
I implemented SVM in the qemu emulator (not kqemu, not kvm, but the
real emulator), so you can use SVM in qemu on _any_ platform qemu
runs on - even on PowerPC.
Basically concerning speed I did not do any benchmarks, but as far as
I can tell the ratio real machine:kvm and qemu:kvm are about the
same. So the virtual machine is about 5-10% slower compared to the
emulated machine.
Hope I could clarify this,
Alexander Graf
