Hi,
I'm running libvert on a Debian 7 system. I have upgraded libvert and qemu
from source (v1.06 and 1.5.0 respectively) and the problem persists. The
guest OS is also a Debian 7 system running a non-SMP kernel. The error
message from virt-manager is
Error starting domain: unsupported configuration: guest and host CPU are
not compatible: Host CPU does not provide required features: rtm, invpcid,
erms, bmi2, smep, avx2, hle, bmi1, fsgsbase, pcid
Traceback (most recent call last):

but the host /proc/cpuinfo gives the correct flags as

power management:
Is there a place in the code I can look where the CPU flags are checked? I
did create this VM on the Debian 7 versions of libvirt and qemu, but I
don't see that it should be much of a problem since you can swap CPUs in
virt-manager.
The end goal is to read Sandy Bridge+ RAPL MSRs from the guest OS.
perf_events are now being exported, which is great for my work, but if I
could read some of those RAPL MSRs, It would make my life orders of
magnitude easier.
Any help would be much appreciated.
Best,
