[asterisk-bugs] [JIRA] Feedback Entered: (ASTERISK-20128) Virtualized asterisk.org 1.8.14.0 no longer runs in a KVM virtualized environment. Compiles without error, but fails with Illegal instruction on launch Regression since 1.8.13.0 Last good 1.8.12.2

------------------------------------

    Status: Waiting for Feedback  (was: Waiting for Feedback)

it's something with the configure script related to the CPU type.

The default KVM emulated CPU is processor
vendor_id	: AuthenticAMD
cpu family	: 6
model		: 2
model name	: QEMU Virtual CPU version 0.15.1
which generates the error,

forcing the CPU architecture to be the same as the KVM host 
vendor_id	: AuthenticAMD
cpu family	: 16
model		: 2
model name	: AMD Phenom(tm) 9550 Quad-Core Processor

is a work around.  With this option via Virt-Manager, Processor, Configuration, Model -> Copy host CPU configuration making the emulated CPU  Opteron_G3,
the illegal instruction is not generated.

Of course this workaround will block live "vmotion style" migrations locking the virtual server to a certain CPU type.
