embedded emulation: bhyve + vt-x on amd fx-8320
Date: Sat, 22 Apr 2023 19:08:51 UTC
Hello world :-) I have relatively old but still decent 8 core AMD FX-8320 CPU. I have switched to bhyve in order to do some testing. I am running Debian with Android Studio to test some mobile applications. The Virtual Device however does not want to start because there is no virtualization support (aka VT-D / NX missing). Yes they write the emulation will be slower but the emulation does not start at all (ave google lol). Three questions: 1. How to check if my CPU has the VT-D/NX support? Cannot find this information on a vendor site o_O 2. How to enable VT-D/NX emulation under bhyve (assuming that CPU supports it)? 3. Is it possible to "fake" this VT-D/NX (at reduced emulation speed) if CPU does not support it? Any hints appreciated :-) Tomek -- CeDeROM, SQ7MHZ, http://www.tomek.cedro.info
