To assist people in verifying that their host is operating in an optimal manner, provide a 'virt-host-validate' command. For each type of hypervisor, it will check any pre-requisites, or other good recommendations and report what's working & what is not. eg # virt-host-validate QEMU: Checking for device /dev/kvm : FAIL (Check that the 'kvm-intel' or 'kvm-amd' modules are loaded & the BIOS has enabled virtualization) QEMU: Checking for device /dev/vhost : WARN (Load the 'vhost_net' module to improve performance of virtio networking) QEMU: Checking for device /dev/net/tun : PASS LXC: Checking for Linux >= 2.6.26 : PASS This warns people if they have vmx/svm, but don't have /dev/kvm. It also warns about missing /dev/vhost net.
