I don't think we need to do such change on our side. This seems like a
hard to reproduce libvirt bug.
The strange thing is that after playing with the XML generated by
virt-manager, using
[x] Copy host CPU configuration
Creating this XML:
<cpu mode='custom' match='exact' check='full'>
<model fallback='forbid'>Skylake-Client-IBRS</model>
<vendor>Intel</vendor>
<feature policy='require' name='ss'/>
<feature policy='require' name='vmx'/>
<feature policy='require' name='pdcm'/>
<feature policy='require' name='hypervisor'/>
<feature policy='require' name='tsc_adjust'/>
<feature policy='require' name='clflushopt'/>
<feature policy='require' name='umip'/>
<feature policy='require' name='md-clear'/>
<feature policy='require' name='stibp'/>
<feature policy='require' name='arch-capabilities'/>
<feature policy='require' name='ssbd'/>
<feature policy='require' name='xsaves'/>
<feature policy='require' name='pdpe1gb'/>
<feature policy='require' name='ibpb'/>
<feature policy='require' name='amd-stibp'/>
<feature policy='require' name='amd-ssbd'/>
<feature policy='require' name='skip-l1dfl-vmentry'/>
<feature policy='require' name='pschange-mc-no'/>
<feature policy='disable' name='mpx'/>
</cpu>
Or using this XML in virt-manager:
<cpu mode="host-passthrough" check="none" migratable="on"/>
Both work with these cluster CPU Type:
- Secure Intel Skylake Client Family
- Intel Skylake Client Family
I think the best place to discuss this is libvirt-users mailing list:
