I think per-domain settings should override this one. Users would find it
odd that they don't have vmx in their hvm guest with
<cpu mode='host-passthrough'>
<feature policy='require' name='vmx'/>
</cpu>
I like this one :) It means that by just introducing global
"nested_hvm = 0", we can have what I've originally proposed - nested HVM
disabled until explicitly enabled with exactly this config snippet.
Yes. Sorry if we've been going around in circles on some of these topics.
Ok, so before I go with v5 being mainly revert to v3 (+global config),
can you confirm that it is really ok? Will it be consistent enough with
KVM case? Not sure how it's handled there, but I'd guess if _kernel
module_ parameter is set to 0 (is it where the global switch is?), it
will stay disabled regardless of what you specify in libvirt domain XML.
Yes, AFAIK that is the case with KVM. But from a libvirt perspective, it will be
consistent with many of the other settings in <hypervisor>.conf. If a setting in
<hypervisor>.conf has a counterpart in domain XML, the latter has precedence.
