Status in qemu package in Ubuntu:

Bug description:
  (Suspected glibc issue!)

  qemu-system-ppc64(le) fails when invoked with kvm acceleration with
  error "illegal instruction"

  > qemu-system-ppc64(le) -M pseries,accel=kvm

  Illegal instruction (core dumped)

  In dmesg:

  Facility 'SCV' unavailable (12), exception at 0x7624f8134c0c,
  MSR=900000000280f033

  
  Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
  qemu 5.2.0 
  Linux kernel 5.11
  glibc 2.33
  all latest updates as of submitting the bug report

  How reproducible:
  Always

  Steps to Reproduce:
  1. Run qemu with kvm acceleration

  Actual results:
  Illegal instruction

  Expected results:
  Normal VM execution

  Additional info:
  The machine is a Raptor Talos II Lite with a Sforza V1 8-core, but was also 
observed on a Raptor Blackbird with the same processor.

  This was also observed on Fedora 34 beta, which uses glibc 2.33
  Also tested on ArchPOWER (unofficial port of Arch Linux for ppc64le) with 
glibc 2.33
  Fedora 33 and Ubuntu 20.10, both using glibc 2.32 do not have this issue, and 
downgrading the Linux kernel from 5.11 to 5.4 LTS on ArchPOWER solved the 
problem. Kernel 5.9 and 5.10 have the same issue when combined with glibc2.33
