CPU/Sandybridge emulation with QEMU/KVM

[Jyb19]

Hi Guys,

Did anyone tried to execute Sandybridge compiled code on a EVE bare-metal host which is not Sandybridge capable ?

I searched for emulation capacities with QEMU but did not success to activate flags I wanted.

To be complete, i need to activate "avx" flag in QEMU parameters, the VM is starting but avx is still not visible in /proc/cpuinfo.
This is for Versa SDWAN lab.

Thanks
