[Bug 1561019] Re: copied cpu flags don't match host cpu

 

Given the (no) feedback and the fact that this actually is not part of
the virt cpu the old request is won't fix. Furthermore I spawned a task
to remove the patches that did add it in the past.

TL;DR:
- intentionally not enabled/added upstream
- long gone with a very low amount of people missing it
- still (and in future) available as opt-in by changing the config as outlined in comment #15
- will remove (disfunctional) related delta on next merge

  copied cpu flags don't match host cpu

Bug description:
  Using wily (libvirt 1.2.16-2ubuntu11.15.10.3) in a AMD FX-8350 nested
  KVM doesn't work, unless in the definition of the vm the cpu is
  configured with  mode='host-passthrough', for other CPUs the
  manifestation could be different.

  Steps to reproduce:

  L0: wily

  $ uvt-kvm create --memory 2048 --cpu 2 vm-L1 release=wily arch=amd64  # the L1 guest can be trusty too, it doesn't really matter
  $ uvt-kvm ssh --insecure vm-L1
  (vm-L1)$ sudo apt-get install cpu-checker
  (vm-L1)$ sudo kvm-ok
  INFO: Your CPU does not support KVM extensions
  KVM acceleration can NOT be used
  (vm-L1)$ sudo modprobe kvm-amd
  modprobe: ERROR: could not insert 'kvm_amd': Operation not supported
  (vm-L1)$ dmesg | grep kvm | tail -n1
  [45890.075592] kvm: no hardware support

  Expected Result:

  kvm-ok says that virtualization is supported

  
  Workaround:

  1) Shutdown the VM (vm-L1)
  2) In the kvm host edit vm-L1 definition (sudo virsh edit vm-L1) and change the cpu definition to:
    <cpu mode='host-passthrough'></cpu>
  3) power on the VM
