Problem Description :

As Ubuntu18.04 as KVM Host installation of ubuntu ubuntu14.04.5 kvm guest is hung to so not able to install using virt-install command

Reproducible Step:
1- Install ubuntu18.04 on Boston DD2.2
2- Configure system as KVM host
3- get ubuntu-14.04.5-server-ppc64el iso
4- start installation using virt-install using ubuntu-14.04.5 iso

Tired with 16 04/ 18 04 guest as P8 compat. Still facing the same issue.

PNOR is in the latest "version-SUPERMICRO-P9DSU-V1.05-20180308-imp"

Looks like this kernel patch is missing in ubuntu 18.04,

commit 00608e1f007e4cf6031485c5630e0e504bceef9b
Author: Paul Mackerras <email address hidden>
Date: Thu Jan 11 16:54:26 2018 +1100

KVM: PPC: Book3S HV: Allow HPT and radix on the same core for POWER9 v2.2

    POWER9 chip versions starting with "Nimbus" v2.2 can support running
    with some threads of a core in HPT mode and others in radix mode.
    This means that we don't have to prohibit independent-threads mode
    when running a HPT guest on a radix host, and we don't have to do any
    of the synchronization between threads that was introduced in commit
    c01015091a77 ("KVM: PPC: Book3S HV: Run HPT guests on POWER9 radix
    hosts", 2017-10-19).

    Rather than using up another CPU feature bit, we just do an
    explicit test on the PVR (processor version register) at module
    startup time to determine whether we have to take steps to avoid
    having some threads in HPT mode and some in radix mode (so-called
    "mixed mode"). We test for "Nimbus" (indicated by 0 or 1 in the top
    nibble of the lower 16 bits) v2.2 or later, or "Cumulus" (indicated by
    2 or 3 in that nibble) v1.1 or later.

You need:

The last one is in my kvm-ppc-fixes branch on kernel.org but not in the KVM tree or Linus's tree yet.
