Qemu dropped cpu features for osxsave and ospke [1][2]. The reason for the instant removal is that those features were never configurable as discussed in [3]. Fortunately the use cases adding those flags in the past are rare, but they exist. One that I identified are e.g. older virt-install when used with --cpu=host-model and there always could be the case of a user adding it to the guest xml. This triggers an issue like: qemu-system-x86_64: can't apply global Broadwell-noTSX-x86_64- cpu.osxsave=on: Property '.osxsave' not found Ensure that this does no more break spawning newer qemu versions by not rendering those features into the qemu command line.
