But accelCPU is not NULL on macOS with QEMU_CAPS_HVF and on Linux with QEMU_CAPS_KVM. That's where the problem arises. We're going to get additional kvm CPUs on mac and hvf CPUs on Linux and that will break qemucapabilitiestest. In fact they will be the same accelCPUs of the supported accelerator but with hostCPU's type attribute of the other accelerator. If you wish I can try to rework the patchset. Instead of generalizing kvmCPU, I'd just add hvfCPU to qemuCaps. It might have a good side effect that libvirt will be able to support multiple accelerators on the same platform. -- Roman -- libvir-list mailing list libvir-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/libvir-list
