Nested VMX support in qemu and kvm

Hi,
I'm trying to use a nested vm, but whatever I do, no vmx flag is in
/proc/cpuinfo ?
qemu-kvm -cpu host
qemu-kvm -cpu host,+vmx
qemu-kvm -cpu qemu64,+vmx

also used qemu-system-x86_64 with those cpu options.

I'm running Gentoo with kernel 3.0.4 and
app-emulation/qemu-kvm-0.15.0.
I also tested it on
app-emulation/qemu-kvm-9999
which is the version compiled from latest git repository.

I did saw some emails and patches on the net from Orit, Avi and Nadav about
nested vmx support,
but it doesn't seems to work for me.

Thanks,
Kfir
