NMI watchdog fails to increment the NMI counter in /proc/interrupts
Kernel Version: 3.10.0-rc5+
Libvirt Version: 1.0.6
Qemu Version: 1.5.50
Steps to reproduce the issue:
1. Booted the VM with :
qemu-system-x86_64 VM1.qcow2 -enable-kvm -watchdog i6300esb -watchdog-action reset -smp 2 -m 2000
2. Edit the /boot/grub/
3. Restart the guests, the NMI counter in /proc/interrupts was 0
4. Installed the watchdog rpm and ran chkconfig watchdog on
5. Restart the guest, even then the NMI counter did not increment

Has this ever worked for you in previous versions?
I've been trying upstream v1.0, v1.2, and the saucy package (all with a precise guest) and a bunch of -machine options, but I can't get the NMI interrupts to go up.
