cloud-hypervisor --serial tty --console pty --kernel "${FIRMWARE_PATH}" --disk path="${RAW_NAME}"

Expected output

I tried to reproduce it on Neoverse-N1, with current (20231207) Ubuntu 22.04 Jammy cloud image (sha256sum: d74dc6f9bc92da4dff973bab1b6dab411c7b6a5219fcdbec25413832cb4b23ba), but cannot. Here is a part of the log:

Failed to start cloud-hypervisor when using hypervisor_fw on aarch64

[thomasbarrett]

I seem to be running into this as well using Ubuntu 22.04 cloud-image + cloud-hypervisor main @retrage on a r8g.metal-24xl instance. I only ran into this issue while starting virtual machines with 128GiB+ of RAM. Any idea what could be causing this?

[retrage]

I have no idea why we cannot reproduce the issue. We can close this issue when your PR #346 is merged.
