The function virHostCPUGetPhysAddrSize was introduced with commit be1b7d5b18e fails on architectures other than x86 and SuperH. The commit 8417c1394cd4d fixed the issue only for s390 but the problem is still seen on other architectures like ppc which does not report Physical address size in their cpuinfo output. command: systemctl restart libvirtd.service Output : <snip> dnsmasq[2377]: read /var/lib/libvirt/dnsmasq/default.addnhosts - 0 addresses dnsmasq-dhcp[2377]: read /var/lib/libvirt/dnsmasq/default.hostsfile libvirtd[3163]: libvirt version: 9.8.0 libvirtd[3163]: hostname: xxxxxxxxxx libvirtd[3163]: internal error: Missing or invalid CPU address size in /proc/cpuinfo libvirtd.service: Deactivated successfully. </snip> This patch fixes this issue by returning the size=0 for architectures other than x86 and SuperH.

Libvirt API for virtualization
Libvirt provides a portable, long term stable C API for managing the virtualization technologies provided by many operating systems. It includes support for QEMU, KVM, Xen, LXC, bhyve, Virtuozzo, VMware vCenter and ESX, VMware Desktop, Hyper-V, VirtualBox and the POWER Hypervisor.
For some of these hypervisors, it provides a stateful management daemon which runs on the virtualization host allowing access to the API both by non-privileged local users and remote users.
Layered packages provide bindings of the libvirt C API into other languages including Python, Perl, PHP, Go, Java, OCaml, as well as mappings into object systems such as GObject, CIM and SNMP.
