Commit c12e3580 (Handle libvirt/cpu_model_extra_flags option)
added support for handling invididual CPU feature flags, but
restricted the options only to "PCID".
In this change, we lift the restriction of choices, and allow
to specify multiple CPU feature flags for all three CPU modes
for the libvirt driver: 'custom', 'host-model' and 'host-passthrough'.

|
The libvirt driver now allows specifying individual CPU feature
|
|
flags for guest, via a new configuration parameter
|
|
``[libvirt]/cpu_model_extra_flags`` -- this is valid in combination
|
|
with all the three possible values for ``[libvirt]/cpu_mode``:
|
|
``custom``, ``host-model`` and ``host-passthrough``. The
|
|
``cpu_model_extra_flags`` allows specifying multiple CPU flags.
|
|
The recent "Meltdown" CVE fixes have resulted in critical
|
|
performance penalty which impacts every Nova guest within
|
|
certain CPU models.
