QEMU 2.8.0 adds support for unavailable-features in
query-cpu-definitions reply. The unavailable-features array lists CPU
features which prevent a corresponding CPU model from being usable on
current host. It can only be used when all the unavailable features are
disabled. Empty array means the CPU model can be used without
modifications.
We can use unavailable-features for providing CPU model usability info
in domain capabilities XML:
<domainCapabilities>
...
<cpu>
<mode name='host-passthrough' supported='yes'/>
<mode name='host-model' supported='yes'>
<model fallback='allow'>Skylake-Client</model>
...
</mode>
<mode name='custom' supported='yes'>
<model usable='yes'>qemu64</model>
<model usable='yes'>qemu32</model>
<model usable='no'>phenom</model>
<model usable='yes'>pentium3</model>
<model usable='yes'>pentium2</model>
<model usable='yes'>pentium</model>
<model usable='yes'>n270</model>
<model usable='yes'>kvm64</model>
<model usable='yes'>kvm32</model>
<model usable='yes'>coreduo</model>
<model usable='yes'>core2duo</model>
<model usable='no'>athlon</model>
<model usable='yes'>Westmere</model>
<model usable='yes'>Skylake-Client</model>
...
</mode>
</cpu>
...
</domainCapabilities>
