berta123 Posted December 3, 2022 Share Posted December 3, 2022 I recently migrated my unraid system over to new hardware (Intel i9-13900k from old threadripper). I am trying to get WSL2 running in a windows VM and it seems every time I enable Virtual Machine Platform the VM refuses to boot and goes to Startup Repair. Frustratingly it won't give me the safe boot option or allow me to restore from a restore point so to troubleshoot my only option is to continually reinstall the OS. I've tried Q35 and i440fx. I have kvm-intel.nested=1 in my syslinux config. I'm at a total loss. Any ideas? Here is my config: <?xml version='1.0' encoding='UTF-8'?> <domain type='kvm' id='8'> <name>matt-ws-vm</name> <uuid>59d27f82-1b9f-b464-d414-569246da5e34</uuid> <metadata> <vmtemplate xmlns="unraid"

Jairus Christensen Posted December 3, 2022 Share Posted December 3, 2022 I have the same issue! Hyper-V does not work in both my Windows 10 and Windows 11 boxes and will cause both to not boot if installed. Because WSL1 doesn't use Hyper-V, it will work fine, but WSL2 and Docker Desktop break my installs. I've intentionally tried this on VMs that are the Unraid default for Windows 10 and 11 with the GUI drop-down for "Hyper-V" set to "Yes". So, I'm not convinced it works as intended. Before you ask, yes, I have the kernel module installed and I have already tried adding the following line into the CPU portion of my config. <feature policy='require' name='vmx'/> Quote Link to comment
VladoPortos Posted May 26, 2023 Share Posted May 26, 2023 Any news, I have the exact same issue... docker install just kills the VM to not be able to boot. 1 Quote Link to comment

This works, the VM starts, but boy the CPU is not liking it, its constant 80 to 99% Edited July 18, 2023 by VladoPortos spelling Quote Link to comment
mackid1993 Posted July 18, 2023 Share Posted July 18, 2023 (edited) My CPU usage is fairly low. I also ran Geekbench and performance was close to baseline bare metal 12700k. Edit: To test I rolled everything back and ran Geekbench again. I actually got a lower score with the default XML for some reason. Edited July 18, 2023 by mackid1993 Quote Link to comment

I would expect to see more load as the cpu is going to be emulated rather than passthru. But would need to test. Quote Link to comment

But would need to test. I'm not really seeing a difference. I also ran comparisons with Geekbench and the difference in performance seems like none. I got a lower score when using host passthrough rather than emulated which was probably just by chance. If I am correct maybe this can be something that can be added as an option in the GUI down the line. I have WSL working fine and my server is sitting at idle right now with the VM running in this configuration. I'm not home right now so it's got to be 80 degrees Farenheit in my apartment with the AC off and my CPU is sitting at 37 degrees celcius currently. From my testing I see no difference other than nested virtualization working. If there is anything I can do to help test performance let me know! Edit: Perhaps if this is a viable solution it may be helpful to make a more visible thread to help other users. I've seen a bunch of threads on this issue and it may be helpful to consolidate the discussion into one place. Edited July 18, 2023 by mackid1993 Quote Link to comment
mackid1993 Posted July 31, 2023 Share Posted July 31, 2023 I got around to doing a bit more testing and there definitely is a performance hit from this. Quote Link to comment
ArchonX Posted January 21 Share Posted January 21 是否有解决方案能够让WSL2在Windows 11 VM 中运行？13900K遇到了同样的问题 Quote Link to comment
RajanPatel Posted February 6 Share Posted February 6 (edited) I recently got a Razer Blade (Razer Blade 17 _2022_ - RZ09-0423) which shipped with a 12th Gen Intel® Core™ i9-12900H × 20. Using <model fallback='allow'>Skylake-Client-noTSX-IBRS</model> was not going to work. I ran virsh capabilities and learned that I have a <model>Broadwell-noTSX-IBRS</model> Before I installed my Windows 11 VM under KVM in Ubuntu 22.04.3, I edited the CPU XML configuration, and removed host-passthrough and manually used just this. Note: "cores=8" because the number of vCPUs allocated to my Windows 11 machine was 8. You will want these numbers to match, or Virtual Machine Manager will complain. <cpu mode="custom" match="exact" check="partial"> <model fallback="allow">Broadwell-noTSX-IBRS</model> <topology sockets="1" dies="1" cores="8" threads="1"/> <feature policy="disable" name="hypervisor"/> <feature policy="require" name="vmx"/> <feature policy="disable" name="mpx"/> </cpu> This worked with great success. Windows 11 installed successfully, and I got an Ubuntu WSL 2 instances running inside my WIndows 11 VM. Attempting to change the CPU XML configurations in Virtual Machine Manager AFTER installing Windows 11 was a fool's errand. The performance hit may likely be remediated by appending the other CPU features as outlined in virsh capabilities. EDIT: I was able to simplify my CPU configuration to be just this: <cpu mode="custom" match="exact" check="partial"> <model fallback="allow">Broadwell-noTSX-IBRS</model> <feature policy="require" name="vmx"/> </cpu> Edited February 6 by RajanPatel Quote Link to comment

However, when I checked the VM definition, it seems to have auto changed this section into the following: ``` <cpu mode='custom' match='exact' check='full'> <model fallback='forbid'>Broadwell-noTSX-IBRS</model> <topology sockets='1' dies='1' cores='8' threads='2'/> <feature policy='require' name='vmx'/> <feature policy='require' name='vme'/> <feature policy='disable' name='pcid'/> <feature policy='require' name='f16c'/> <feature policy='require' name='rdrand'/> <feature policy='require' name='hypervisor'/> <feature policy='require' name='arat'/> <feature policy='require' name='xsaveopt'/> <feature policy='require' name='abm'/> </cpu> ``` which seems to the be opposite of the intended effect. I'm running an Intel 13900K processor; does this have anything to do with this re-definition? Quote Link to comment

mackid1993 Posted July 14 Share Posted July 14 It's not possible with Windows. The second you enable hyper-v the VM doesn't boot. You have to go in to recovery and run dism /Disable-Feature /FeatureName:Microsoft-Hyper-V /Image:C:\ at a command prompt. Quote Link to comment

I didn't realise that would be an issue for Windows 11, although I really have very limited knowledge as to how this all works under the hood. Your comment has just made me realise my 11700k is Rocket lake not Skylake, I never thought to check as the “virsh capabilities” CMD brought up Skylake. Would it be worth trying the Icelake-client?
