The test case already checks for umip in /proc/cpuinfo, right? And in<br>
long mode it always expects a SIGSEGV signal. If you did not add -cpu host,+umip,<br>
how come umip was present in /proc/cpuinfo?<br></blockquote><div><br></div><div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-size:small">Yes, right. </div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-size:small"><br></div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-size:small">But the KVM guest is not customized in manual, I reserved that system for automation test and did not aware of the '-cpu host,+umip,' parameter until Paolo points it out.
