+++ This bug is a downstream clone. The original bug is: +++
+++   bug 1600573 +++
======================================================================

similar to earlier Intel CPU update this one is for AMD EPYC family. Microcode update not required

+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #1581144 +++

add SSBD CPUs to the supported list. Requires host support and microcode updates to be effective

actually, AMD EPYC was new in 4.2 GA and changed there already to use +ibpb instead of -IBPB so just a new type is enough

Comment 4 Michal Skrivanek 2018-07-12 14:52:08 UTC
+ requiring the right rhvm-setup-plugins

Comment 5 Eyal Edri 2018-07-15 13:24:28 UTC
testing jira sync, please ignore.

Comment 7 Israel Pinto 2018-07-17 06:43:28 UTC
Verify with: 4.2.5.1-0.1.el7ev
Build: rhv-release-4.2.5-3-001.noarch

Steps: 
1. Add host with capabilities:
# virsh -r domcapabilities | grep EPYC
      <model fallback='forbid'>EPYC-IBPB</model>
      <model usable='yes'>EPYC</model>
      <model usable='yes'>EPYC-IBPB</model>
  To cluster AMD EPYC IBPB
2. Start VM on host
VM started and host added 

PASS

Verify with:
Engine: 4.2.5.2_SNAPSHOT-83.g4210c43.0.scratch.master.el7ev
Host: 
OS Version:RHEL - 7.5 - 8.el7
Kernel Version:3.10.0 - 862.6.3.el7.x86_64
KVM Version:2.10.0 - 21.el7_5.4

CPU model: AMD EPYC 7251 8-Core Processor
microcode version: microcode_ctl-2.1-29.3.el7_5.x86_64

Steps:
1. Add host to cluster: AMD EPYC IBPB SSBD
2. Check host domcapabilities for ssbd:
   # virsh -r domcapabilities |  grep -i ssbd
      <feature policy='require' name='virt-ssbd'/>
3. Start VM and check guest cpu type: 
   EPYC,+ibpb,+virt-ssbd

PASS
