https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=689672 - Guests do not start
after upgrading qemu to 0.13

Seems like our backward compatibility plan isn't working. How do we
address it? How do we test it?

f13 is ancient, no?

Yes, a year old.

Furthermore, Justin tells me it carries a lot downstream patches.


I'm not sure what this particular issue is, but is this doing -M pc-0.12?


It has its own machine type. So this report may not indicate any problem with upstream.

Still, I feel we have a potential problem here. We identify guest-visible attributes just by review; we're sure to miss something here and there. Unlike ordinary bugs, compatibility problems only show up later and are much harder to fix.

Second, we don't do any tests in this area that I'm aware of. Lucas, what would it take (thanks, you're most kind) to test multiple qemus in a single run?

We can have a script that runs lspci -vvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvv, x86info, and other interesting stuff and compare the results, and also system tests that boot a guest on multiple qemus (with the same -M and different -M) and see if things work.

We can probably continue on email, I don't see a real need for a call for this topic.
