[PATCH v4 3/5] python/qemu: accel: Strengthen kvm_available() checks |
Date: |
Mon, 16 Dec 2019 16:14:36 -0300 |
Currently kvm_available() checks for the presence of kvm module
and, if target and host arches don't mismatch. This patch adds
an 3rd checking: if QEMU binary was compiled with kvm
support.
