Description Laurent Vivier 2015-06-05 08:54:12 UTC 
Description:

qemu-kvm from RHEL7.2 needs -M rhel7.2.0 working, to allow users to declare minimal compatibility requirement at rhel 7.2 level.

Test-case is 
# /usr/libexec/qemu-kvm -M ?

Output has to include:

none                 empty machine
pseries-rhel7.1.0    RHEL 7.1.0 pSeries Logical Partition (PAPR compliant)
pseries              RHEL 7.2.0 pSeries Logical Partition (PAPR
compliant) (alias of pseries-rhel7.2.0)
pseries-rhel7.2.0    RHEL 7.2.0 pSeries Logical Partition (PAPR
compliant) (default)
Comment 2 Miroslav Rezanina 2015-06-19 11:09:20 UTC 
Fix included in qemu-kvm-rhev-2.3.0-3.el7
Comment 4 Gu Nini 2015-07-03 05:20:37 UTC 
Laurent,

Seemed there is no the 'pseries-rhel7.1.0' machine type:

[root@ibm-p8-kvm-01-qe default]# /usr/libexec/qemu-kvm -M ?
Supported machines are:
none                 empty machine
pseries              RHEL 7.2.0 pSeries Logical Partition (PAPR compliant) (alias of pseries-rhel7.2.0)
pseries-rhel7.2.0    RHEL 7.2.0 pSeries Logical Partition (PAPR compliant) (default)
[root@ibm-p8-kvm-01-qe default]# 
[root@ibm-p8-kvm-01-qe default]# rpm -qa|grep qemu
ipxe-roms-qemu-20130517-7.gitc4bce43.el7.noarch
qemu-kvm-rhev-debuginfo-2.3.0-5.el7.ppc64le
libvirt-daemon-driver-qemu-1.2.17-1.el7.ppc64le
qemu-img-rhev-2.3.0-5.el7.ppc64le
qemu-kvm-common-rhev-2.3.0-5.el7.ppc64le
qemu-kvm-rhev-2.3.0-5.el7.ppc64le

[root@ibm-p8-kvm-01-qe default]#
Comment 5 Laurent Vivier 2015-07-03 08:46:40 UTC 
Gu, it is normal.

As we have never released a qemu with pseries-rhel7.1.0 we don't need it for compatibility.

On request of dev team, during the review of my first patch where I had let it, I have removed it.
Comment 6 Qunfang Zhang 2015-07-31 10:34:43 UTC 
Verified on qemu-kvm-rhev-2.3.0-13.el7.ppc64le. 

# rpm -qa | grep qemu-kvm-rhev
qemu-kvm-rhev-2.3.0-13.el7.ppc64le
qemu-kvm-rhev-debuginfo-2.3.0-13.el7.ppc64le

# /usr/libexec/qemu-kvm -machine ?
Supported machines are:
none                 empty machine
pseries              RHEL 7.2.0 pSeries Logical Partition (PAPR compliant) (alias of pseries-rhel7.2.0)
pseries-rhel7.2.0    RHEL 7.2.0 pSeries Logical Partition (PAPR compliant) (default)

Based on above, the RHEL7.2.0 machine type is added, setting to VERIFIED.
