Right now when building the qemu command line, we try to do various unconditional validations of the guest CPU against the host CPU. However this checks are overly applied. The only time we should use the checks are: - The user requests host-model/host-passthrough, or - When KVM is requsted. CPU features requested in TCG mode are always emulated by qemu and are independent of the host CPU, so no host CPU checks should be performed. Right now if trying to specify a CPU for arm on an x86 host, it attempts to do non-sensical validation and falls over. Switch all the test cases that were intending to test CPU validation to use KVM, so they continue to test the intended code. Amend some aarch64 XML tests with a CPU model, to ensure things work correctly.
LibVirt : simple API for virtualization
Libvirt is a C toolkit to interact with the virtualization capabilities
of recent versions of Linux (and other OSes). It is free software
available under the GNU Lesser General Public License. Virtualization of
the Linux Operating System means the ability to run multiple instances of
Operating Systems concurrently on a single hardware system where the basic
resources are driven by a Linux instance. The library aim at providing
long term stable C API initially for the Xen paravirtualization but
should be able to integrate other virtualization mechanisms if needed.
