This CPU was incorrectly detected as SandyBridge before because the
number of additional <feature> elements was the same for both
SandyBridge and Westmere CPU models, but SandyBridge is newer (the CPU
signature does not help here because it doesn't match any signature
defined in cpu_map.xml). But since QEMU's version of SandyBridge CPU
model contains xsaveopt which needs to be disabled, Westmere becomes the
best CPU model when translating CPUID data to virCPUDef. Unfortunately,
this doesn't help with translating the data we got from QEMU and the CPU
model is still computed as SandyBridge in this case.

The unavailable features do not make any difference in this case,

When testing cpuDecode for computing guest CPU definition from CPUID

All APIs which expect a list of CPU models supported by hypervisors were
switched from char **models and int models to just accept a pointer to
virDomainCapsCPUModels object stored in domain capabilities. This avoids
the need to transform virDomainCapsCPUModelsPtr into a NULL-terminated
list of model names and also allows the various cpu driver APIs to
access additional details (such as its usability) about each CPU model.

In the past we updated host-model CPUs with host CPU data by adding a
model and features, but keeping the host-model mode. And since the CPU
model is not normally formatted for host-model CPU defs, we had to pass
the updateCPU flag to the formatting code to be able to properly output
updated host-model CPUs. Libvirt doesn't do this anymore, host-model
CPUs are turned into custom mode CPUs once updated with host CPU data
and thus there's no reason for keeping the hacks inside CPU XML
formatters.

We already know from QEMU which CPU features will block migration. Let's

The test takes
x86-cpuid-Something-guest.xml CPU (the CPU libvirt would use for
host-model on a CPU described by x86_64-cpuid-Something.xml without
talking to QEMU about what it supports on the host)
and updates it according to CPUID data from QEMU:
x86_64-cpuid-Something-enabled.xml (reported as "feature-words"
property of the CPU device)
and
x86_64-cpuid-Something-disabled.xml (reported as "filtered-features"
property of the CPU device).
The result is compared to
x86_64-cpuid-Something-json.xml (the CPU libvirt would use as
host-model based on the reply from query-cpu-model-expansion).
The comparison is a bit tricky because the *-json.xml CPU contains fewer
disabled features. Only the features which are included in the base CPU
model, but listed as disabled in *.json will be disabled in *-json.xml.
The CPU computed by virCPUUpdateLive from the test data will list all
features present in the host's CPUID data and not enabled in *.json as
disabled. The cpuTestUpdateLiveCompare function checks that the computed
and expected sets of enabled features match.

PPC driver needs to convert POWERx_v* legacy CPU model names into POWERx

drivers can use to convert legacy CPU definitions.
Signed-off-by: Jiri Denemark <jdenemar@redhat.com>
The API is no longer used anywhere else since it was replaced by a much
saner work flow utilizing new APIs that work on virCPUDefPtr directly:
virCPUCompare, virCPUUpdate, and virCPUTranslate.
Not testing the new work flow caused some bugs to be hidden. This patch
reveals them, but doesn't attempt to fix them. To make sure all test
still pass after this patch, all affected test results are modified to
pretend the tests succeeded. All of the bugs will be fixed in the
following commits and the artificial modifications will be reverted.
The following is the list of bugs in the new CPU model work flow:
- a guest CPU with mode='custom' and missing <vendor/> gets the vendor
copied from host's CPU (the vendor should only be copied to host-model
CPUs):
DO_TEST_UPDATE("x86", "host", "min", VIR_CPU_COMPARE_IDENTICAL)
DO_TEST_UPDATE("x86", "host", "pentium3", VIR_CPU_COMPARE_IDENTICAL)
DO_TEST_GUESTCPU("x86", "host-better", "pentium3", NULL, 0)
- when a guest CPU with mode='custom' needs to be translated into
another model because the original model is not supported by a
hypervisor, the result will have its vendor set to the vendor of the
original CPU model as specified in cpu_map.xml even if the original
guest CPU XML didn't contain <vendor/>:
DO_TEST_GUESTCPU("x86", "host", "guest", model486, 0)
DO_TEST_GUESTCPU("x86", "host", "guest", models, 0)
DO_TEST_GUESTCPU("x86", "host-Haswell-noTSX", "Haswell-noTSX",
haswell, 0)
- legacy POWERx_v* model names are not recognized:
DO_TEST_GUESTCPU("ppc64", "host", "guest-legacy", ppc_models, 0)

Using a preferred model for guest CPUs with forbidden fallback masks a
bug in the code. It would just happily use another CPU model supported
by a hypervisor even though it is explicitly forbidden in the CPU XML.
This patch temporarily changes the expected result to -2, which is used

found since the tested API should have failed). The result will be
switched back to -1 few commits later when the original bug gets fixed.

So far we only test CPUID -> CPU def conversion on artificial CPUID data
computed from another CPU def. This patch adds the infrastructure to
test this conversion on real data gathered from a host CPU and two
helper scripts for adding new test data:
- cpu-gather.sh runs cpuid tool and qemu-system-x86_64 to get CPUID data
from the host CPU; this is what users can be asked to run if they run
into an issue with host CPU detection in libvirt
- cpu-parse.sh takes the data generated by cpu-gather.sh and creates
data files for CPU detection tests
The CPUID data queried from QEMU will eventually switch to the format
used by query-host-cpu QMP command once QEMU implements it. Until then
we just spawn QEMU with -cpu host and query the guest CPU in QOM. They
should both provide the same CPUID results, but query-host-cpu does not
require any guest CPU to be created by QEMU.

The upcoming commits will make heavy modifications to the ppc64
driver, split so that it's easier to review the changes.
Instead of updating the test cases so that they pass, possibly
only to update them again with the following commit, disable them
for the time being.
Another commit will update them all in one go once all required
changes are in place.
Limitations of the POWER architecture mean that you can't run
eg. a POWER7 guest on a POWER8 host when using KVM. This applies
to all guests, not just those using VIR_CPU_MATCH_STRICT in the
CPU definition; in fact, exact and strict CPU matching are
basically the same on ppc64.
This means, of course, that hosts using different CPUs have to be
considered incompatible as well.
Change ppc64Compute(), called by cpuGuestData(), to reflect this
fact and update test cases accordingly.

A test is considered successful if the obtained result matches
the expected result: if that's not the case, whether because a
test that was expected to succeed failed or because a test that
was supposed to fail succeeded, then something's not right and
we want the user to know about this.
On the other hand, if a failure that's unrelated to the bits
we're testing occurs, then the user should be notified even if
the test was expected to fail.
Use different values to tell these two situations apart.
Fix a test case that was wrongly expected to fail as well.
QEMU 2.3 adds these new models to cover Haswell and Broadwell CPUs with
updated microcode. Luckily, they also reverted former the machine type
specific changes to existing models. And since these changes were never
released, we don't need to hack around them in libvirt.

For historical reasons data regarding NUMA configuration were split
between the CPU definition and numatune. We cannot do anything about the
XML still being split, but we certainly can at least store the relevant
data in one place.
This patch moves the NUMA stuff to the right place.
The virCPUDefFormat* methods were relying on the VIR_DOMAIN_XML_*
flag definitions. It is not desirable for low level internal
functions to be coupled to flags for the public API, since they
may need to be called from several different contexts where the
flags would not be appropriate.
Commit fba6bc4 introduced support for the 'invtsc' feature,
which blocks migration. We should not include it in the
host-model CPU by default, because it's intended to be used
with migration.

When CPU comparison APIs return VIR_CPU_COMPARE_INCOMPATIBLE, the caller
has no clue why the CPU is considered incompatible with host CPU. And in
some cases, it would be nice to be able to get such info in a client
rather than having to look in logs.
To achieve this, the APIs can be told to return VIR_ERR_CPU_INCOMPATIBLE
error for incompatible CPUs and the reason will be described in the
associated error message.
