Description Richard Henderson 2010-09-27 15:56:51 UTC

There should be some mechanism by which one can change the
cpu model, and thus the cpuid flags as reported within the
guest.  At present one is limited to exactly 2 cpu models,
one for 32 bit and one for 64-bit.

Editing this field should not require creation of a new
virtual machine, as is currently the case for switching
between 32-bit and 64-bit emulation.

Comment 2 Cole Robinson 2010-12-17 16:13:21 UTC

CPU model is now configurable upstream (and does not require creating a new guest):

This is unlikely to be backported to f13, moving to f14.
