Previously, the script only generated the parent CPU and any versions
that had a defined alias. The script now generates all CPU versions. Any
version that had a defined alias will continue to use that alias, but
those without aliases will use the generated name $BASECPUNAME-vN.
The reason for this change is two-fold. First, we need to add new models
that support new features (such as SEV-SNP). To deal with this, the
script now generates model definitions for all versions.
But we also need to ensure that our CPU definitions are migration-safe.
To deal with this issue we need to make sure we're always using the
canonical versioned names for CPUs.
Qemu documentation states that unversioned names for CPU models (e.g.
'EPYC') are actually aliases to a specific versioned CPU model (e.g.
'EPYC-v1'). The documentation further states that the specific version
targeted by the alias may change based on the machine type of the
domain. Management software such as libvirt is directed to translate
these aliases to a concrete version in order to make sure that the CPU
definition is safe when migrating between different qemu versions that
may make different choices for which underlying versioned model
represents the alias.
In practice, at the time of writing qemu always maps the unversioned
aliases to the -v1 model. And libvirt's CPU model definitions also
assume that this is the case. For example, the 'x86_EPYC.xml' file
contains the features that are defined for the EPYC-v1 inside of qemu.
But if qemu ever changes their alias mapping, libvirt's idea of what an
'EPYC' CPU means and qemu's idea of what an 'EPYC' CPU means will no
longer match. So when choosing a CPU model for a domain, we should
always pass the canonical versioned name to libvirt rather than the
unversioned alias. To enable this, the script will generate a new
'canonical_name' field to the CPU model xml definition.
