Even if we dismiss the Intel coined names as internal code names, there is still VMW's use of them in this space which we can either align with or attempt to displace. All considered I don't see any motivation nor gain in doing the latter. Anyway it doesn't appear likely we're going to resolve this to our collective satisfaction with a hard-wired naming scheme. > It would be nice if qemu could tell the user which of the built-in > -cpu choices is the most featureful subset of their own host. With > -cpu host implemented, finding that is probably quite easy. This should be doable although it may not be as simple as traversing a hierarchy of features and picking one with the most host flags present. In any case this should be fairly detachable from settling the immediate issue. -john -- john.cooper@xxxxxxxxxx -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe kvm" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
