Except that many cpus don't work with enforce: $ /usr/libexec/qemu-kvm -cpu core2duo,enforce warning: host doesn't support requested feature: CPUID.01H:EDX.ds [bit 21] warning: host doesn't support requested feature: CPUID.01H:EDX.acpi [bit 22] warning: host doesn't support requested feature: CPUID.01H:EDX.ht [bit 28] warning: host doesn't support requested feature: CPUID.01H:EDX.tm [bit 29] warning: host doesn't support requested feature: CPUID.01H:EDX.pbe [bit 31] warning: host doesn't support requested feature: CPUID.01H:ECX.dtes64 [bit 2] warning: host doesn't support requested feature: CPUID.01H:ECX.monitor [bit 3] warning: host doesn't support requested feature: CPUID.01H:ECX.ds_cpl [bit 4] warning: host doesn't support requested feature: CPUID.01H:ECX.vmx [bit 5] warning: host doesn't support requested feature: CPUID.01H:ECX.est [bit 7] warning: host doesn't support requested feature: CPUID.01H:ECX.tm2 [bit 8] warning: host doesn't support requested feature: CPUID.01H:ECX.xtpr [bit 14] warning: host doesn't support requested feature: CPUID.01H:ECX.pdcm [bit 15] Like VMX above, some AMD models require nested SVM to be enabled: $ /usr/libexec/qemu-kvm -cpu phenom,enforce warning: host doesn't support requested feature: CPUID.01H:EDX.ht [bit 28] warning: host doesn't support requested feature: CPUID.01H:ECX.monitor [bit 3] warning: host doesn't support requested feature: CPUID.80000001H:ECX.svm [bit 2] warning: host doesn't support requested feature: CPUID.8000000AH:EDX.npt [bit 0] warning: host doesn't support requested feature: CPUID.8000000AH:EDX.lbrv [bit 1] (actually, even with nested SVM, LBR virtualization is not supported in L2 guests) Testing some of the bits does not make sense, for example HT. Some others will never be supported (TM/TM2, ACPI, PBE, xTPR, ...). The set of CPUs that work with enforce is pretty much what you tested (the Opteron_G* models and some of the code-named Intel chips).
