libvirt starts QEMU with bad CPU based on its XML

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



My XML configs for my VM machines have it set to AMD Opteron G3s, but
libvirt is creating QEMU with a core2duo. This is not correct at all.
I've included the setup and config of one machine that does this. But
another machine that does this matches danpb's AMD Quad Core Dual NUMA
system he posted on the mailing list recently. That machine is using a
stock qemu-0.15.1 from upstream's git and libvirt git a few commits
shy of the 0.9.11 rc1. The machine below is using libvirt 0.9.10 and
qemu-kvm-1.0.


Here's the setup:

The host is:

vendor_id       : AuthenticAMD
cpu family      : 21

The guest is:

processor       : 1

3dnowprefetch
bogomips        : 4200.01

The QEMU command line contains the following:

-cpu core2duo,+wdt,+skinit,+osvw,+3dnowprefetch,+misalignsse,+sse4a,+abm,+cr8legacy,+extapic,+svm,+cmp_legacy,+lahf_lm,+rdtscp,+pdpe1gb,+fxsr_opt,+mmxext,+aes,+popcnt,+sse4.2,+sse4.1,+cx16,+ht

While libvirt's XML contains:

 <cpu match='exact'>
   <model>Opteron_G3</model>
   <vendor>AMD</vendor>
   <feature policy='require' name='aes'/>
   <feature policy='require' name='skinit'/>
   <feature policy='require' name='vme'/>
   <feature policy='require' name='mmxext'/>
   <feature policy='require' name='fxsr_opt'/>
   <feature policy='require' name='cr8legacy'/>
   <feature policy='require' name='ht'/>
   <feature policy='require' name='3dnowprefetch'/>
   <feature policy='require' name='ssse3'/>
   <feature policy='require' name='wdt'/>
   <feature policy='require' name='extapic'/>
   <feature policy='require' name='pdpe1gb'/>
   <feature policy='require' name='osvw'/>
   <feature policy='require' name='sse4.1'/>
   <feature policy='require' name='cmp_legacy'/>
   <feature policy='require' name='sse4.2'/>
 </cpu>
