RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.
Bulk update: Move RHEL-AV bugs to RHEL9. If necessary to resolve in RHEL8, then clone to the current RHEL8 release.

Description of problem: the phenom CPU model defined in QEMU contains "npt" feature while libvirt doesn't know anything about the feature. When a new domain is started, QEMU disables this feature on host, which is ignored by libvirt (it doesn't know the feature), but once restoring the domain it sees QEMU unexpectedly disabled some feature and complains about it. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): libvirt-3.2.0-14.el7_4.2.x86_64 How reproducible: 100% (on some machines) Steps to Reproduce: virsh # capabilities <capabilities> <host> <uuid>00020003-0004-0005-0006-000700080009</uuid> <cpu> <arch>x86_64</arch> <model>Opteron_G2</model> <vendor>AMD</vendor> <topology sockets='1' cores='2' threads='1'/> <feature name='vme'/> <feature name='ht'/> <feature name='mmxext'/> <feature name='fxsr_opt'/> <feature name='3dnowext'/> <feature name='3dnow'/> <feature name='cmp_legacy'/> <feature name='extapic'/> <feature name='cr8legacy'/> <pages unit='KiB' size='4'/> <pages unit='KiB' size='2048'/> </cpu> 1.Config domain xml as: # virsh dumpxml avocado-vt-vm1 ... <cpu mode='host-model' check='partial'> <model fallback='allow'/> </cpu> ... 2.Start guest, check xml: # virsh dumpxml avocado-vt-vm1 ... <cpu mode='custom' match='exact' check='full'> <model fallback='forbid'>phenom</model> <vendor>AMD</vendor> <feature policy='require' name='vme'/> <feature policy='require' name='cx16'/> <feature policy='require' name='x2apic'/> <feature policy='require' name='tsc-deadline'/> <feature policy='require' name='hypervisor'/> <feature policy='require' name='arat'/> <feature policy='require' name='lahf_lm'/> <feature policy='require' name='cmp_legacy'/> <feature policy='require' name='cr8legacy'/> <feature policy='disable' name='monitor'/> <feature policy='disable' name='svm'/> <feature policy='disable' name='popcnt'/> <feature policy='disable' name='pdpe1gb'/> <feature policy='disable' name='rdtscp'/> <feature policy='disable' name='abm'/> <feature policy='disable' name='sse4a'/> </cpu> ... # virsh dumpxml avocado-vt-vm1 --migratable ... <cpu mode='custom' match='exact' check='partial'> <model fallback='forbid'>phenom</model> <vendor>AMD</vendor> <feature policy='require' name='vme'/> <feature policy='require' name='cx16'/> <feature policy='require' name='x2apic'/> <feature policy='require' name='tsc-deadline'/> <feature policy='require' name='hypervisor'/> <feature policy='require' name='arat'/> <feature policy='require' name='lahf_lm'/> <feature policy='require' name='cmp_legacy'/> <feature policy='require' name='cr8legacy'/> <feature policy='disable' name='monitor'/> <feature policy='disable' name='svm'/> </cpu> ... 3.Do managedsave: # virsh managedsave avocado-vt-vm1 Domain avocado-vt-vm1 state saved by libvirt 4.Try to start the domain: # virsh start avocado-vt-vm1 error: Failed to start domain avocado-vt-vm1 error: operation failed: guest CPU doesn't match specification Actual results: As in step4, starting the domain from a managedsave state failed with error that cpu doesn't match Expected results: Should succeed to start the domain without error.
