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.

Description Eduardo Habkost 2020-07-13 19:55:30 UTC
This is a feature request:

When we add a new CPU model or a new version of a CPU model to QEMU, we need to manually add a corresponding copy of that CPU model definition to libvirt's cpu_map.xml.  This increases the effort and time required to ship important bug fixes to customers (e.g. when a bug fix requires the introduction of a new CPU model version).

libvirt should be able to expose new CPU models from QEMU through its existing CPU model API automatically, without the need to ship a cpu_map.xml update.

Comment 2 John Ferlan 2021-09-09 15:47:16 UTC
Bulk update: Move RHEL-AV bugs to RHEL8.

Added RHV as dependent product and left in RHEL8. If a Resolution/Testing is required for RHEL9, then a clone will need to be created.

Comment 4 RHEL Program Management 2022-01-13 07:27:58 UTC
After evaluating this issue, there are no plans to address it further or fix it in an upcoming release.  Therefore, it is being closed.  If plans change such that this issue will be fixed in an upcoming release, then the bug can be reopened.

Comment 8 Tim Wiederhake 2022-07-18 09:06:05 UTC
See https://listman.redhat.com/archives/libvir-list/2022-June/232626.html for a proposal to address this

Comment 9 John Ferlan 2022-07-20 11:09:03 UTC
NB: Removed RHV as dependent product since this is a RHEL9 issue

Comment 14 Jaroslav Suchanek 2023-07-12 09:50:34 UTC
Lets close this one correspondingly to qemu-kvm counterpart (bug 1697663). We will create new set of feature requests, once we get better understanding of what is actually the desired goal and how to implement it through the stack. Thanks.

Comment 15 Red Hat Bugzilla 2023-11-10 04:25:03 UTC
The needinfo request[s] on this closed bug have been removed as they have been unresolved for 120 days
