[Bug 1836501] Re: cpu_address_space_init fails with assertion
When I use gdb i see that the assert line uses: /* KVM cannot currently support multiple address spaces. */ assert(asidx == 0 || !kvm_enabled()); the asidx is 1.

I can boot a KVM guest (either with the debian stretch qemu-system-arm 2.8.1, or with a head-of-upstream-git QEMU), which wouldn't work with EL3 enabled, so I'm not sure what is going wrong for you.

[Qemu-devel] [Bug 1836501] Re: cpu_address_space_init fails with assertion
We do check for the incompatible option combination in hw/arm/virt.c:
if (vms->secure) {
if (kvm_enabled()) {
error_report("mach-virt: KVM does not support Security extensions");
exit(1);
}
we just don't have anything equivalent in vexpress.c. We should probably
put something in target/arm/cpu.c so we don't have to modify every
board.

Title:
cpu_address_space_init fails with assertion
Status in QEMU:
Confirmed
Bug description:
qemu-system-arm does not start with version >= 2.6 and KVM enabled.
cpu_address_space_init: Assertion `asidx == 0 || !kvm_enabled()'
failed.
Hardware is Odroid XU4 with Exynos with 4.9.61+ Tested with Debian
Stretch (9) or Buster (10).
Without KVM it is running fine but slow. I'm operating Debian Jessie
with qemu 2.1 for a long time with KVM virtualization working

It seems to be related to the feature introduced in Version 2.6:
https://wiki.qemu.org/ChangeLog/2.6
- Support for a separate EL3 address space
KVM is enabled, so I assume the adress space index asidx to be causing
the assert to fail.

Oh, I've just noticed -- we default to enabling EL3 on this board (like the hardware), which won't work with KVM, so if you want KVM you need to disable EL3 with the command line option -machine secure=off -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of qemu- devel-ml, which is subscribed to QEMU. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1836501 Title: cpu_address_space_init fails with assertion Status in QEMU: New Bug description: qemu-system-arm does not start with version >= 2.6 and KVM enabled. cpu_address_space_init: Assertion `asidx == 0 || !kvm_enabled()' failed.

[Qemu-devel] [Bug 1836501] Re: cpu_address_space_init fails with assertion
2.6 is now very old -- can you check whether this is still a problem with a more recent QEMU version, please? The command line you're using should in theory work, but vexpress-a15 + KVM is a bit of an obscure combination -- most people who want to use virtualization use the 'virt' machine, which supports more RAM and has PCI, unlike the vexpress-a15 board. So it's possible we broke it by accident and didn't notice. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of qemu- devel-ml, which is subscribed to QEMU. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1836501 Title: cpu_address_space_init fails with assertion Status in QEMU: New Bug description: qemu-system-arm does not start with version >= 2.6 and KVM enabled. cpu_address_space_init: Assertion `asidx == 0 || !kvm_enabled()' failed.
