From d780a31271b2f455cb4b83eb018ecfb1c28ef5c1 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Tim Gardner Date: Tue, 29 Oct 2013 09:13:54 -0600 Subject: [PATCH] KVM: Fix modprobe failure for kvm_intel/kvm_amd The x86 specific kvm init creates a new conflicting debugfs directory which causes modprobe issues with kvm_intel and kvm_amd. For example, sudo modprobe kvm_amd modprobe: ERROR: could not insert 'kvm_amd': Bad address The simplest fix is to just rename the directory. The following KVM config options are set: CONFIG_KVM_GUEST=y CONFIG_KVM_DEBUG_FS=y CONFIG_HAVE_KVM=y CONFIG_HAVE_KVM_IRQCHIP=y CONFIG_HAVE_KVM_IRQ_ROUTING=y CONFIG_HAVE_KVM_EVENTFD=y CONFIG_KVM_APIC_ARCHITECTURE=y CONFIG_KVM_MMIO=y CONFIG_KVM_ASYNC_PF=y CONFIG_HAVE_KVM_MSI=y CONFIG_HAVE_KVM_CPU_RELAX_INTERCEPT=y CONFIG_KVM=m CONFIG_KVM_INTEL=m CONFIG_KVM_AMD=m CONFIG_KVM_DEVICE_ASSIGNMENT=y Cc: Thomas Gleixner Cc: Ingo Molnar Cc: "H.
