Comment 1 Markus Armbruster 2014-09-02 18:43:17 UTC

In addition to adding new machine types, the original bug 895959
tracked everything necessary to make old machine types work.  This bug
tracks only adding the new machine types for 7.1, like bug 977864 did
for 7.0 (blocking bug 895959).  I guess we should've cloned bug 977864
instead, but it's not worth cleaning up now.

Comment 3 Miroslav Rezanina 2014-09-17 07:38:04 UTC

Fix included in qemu-kvm-rhev-2.1.0-4.el7

Reproduce this bug using the following version:
qemu-kvm-rhev-2.1.0-3.el7.x86_64
kernel-3.10.0-163.el7.x86_64

Steps to Reproduce:
# /usr/libexec/qemu-kvm -M ?

Actual results:
No machine type for rhel7.1:

# /usr/libexec/qemu-kvm -M ?
Supported machines are:
rhel6.0.0            RHEL 6.0.0 PC
rhel6.5.0            RHEL 6.5.0 PC
rhel6.1.0            RHEL 6.1.0 PC
rhel6.2.0            RHEL 6.2.0 PC
pc                   RHEL 7.0.0 PC (i440FX + PIIX, 1996) (alias of pc-i440fx-rhel7.0.0)
pc-i440fx-rhel7.0.0  RHEL 7.0.0 PC (i440FX + PIIX, 1996) (default)
rhel6.3.0            RHEL 6.3.0 PC
none                 empty machine
q35                  RHEL-7.0.0 PC (Q35 + ICH9, 2009) (alias of pc-q35-rhel7.0.0)
pc-q35-rhel7.0.0     RHEL-7.0.0 PC (Q35 + ICH9, 2009)
rhel6.4.0            RHEL 6.4.0 PC

kernel-3.10.0-163.el7.x86_64

Steps to Verify:
# /usr/libexec/qemu-kvm -M ?

Actual results:
Machine type for rhel7.1 is added:

# /usr/libexec/qemu-kvm -M ?
Supported machines are:
rhel6.0.0            RHEL 6.0.0 PC
rhel6.5.0            RHEL 6.5.0 PC
rhel6.1.0            RHEL 6.1.0 PC
rhel6.2.0            RHEL 6.2.0 PC
pc-i440fx-rhel7.0.0  RHEL 7.0.0 PC (i440FX + PIIX, 1996)
q35                  RHEL-7.1.0 PC (Q35 + ICH9, 2009) (alias of pc-q35-rhel7.1.0)
pc-q35-rhel7.1.0     RHEL-7.1.0 PC (Q35 + ICH9, 2009)
rhel6.3.0            RHEL 6.3.0 PC
none                 empty machine
pc                   RHEL 7.1.0 PC (i440FX + PIIX, 1996) (alias of pc-i440fx-rhel7.1.0)
pc-i440fx-rhel7.1.0  RHEL 7.1.0 PC (i440FX + PIIX, 1996) (default)
pc-q35-rhel7.0.0     RHEL-7.0.0 PC (Q35 + ICH9, 2009)
rhel6.4.0            RHEL 6.4.0 PC

I think the machine type should be ordered, open a new bz1145042.
