All of them [1].  If you have an asymmetric machine, you can disable 
those flags with the -cpu switch.

Note the default qemu cpu disables many flags, so if one machine has 
sse4.2 and the other doesn't, migration will still work without 
disabling anything.


[1] Rather, all flags understood by qemu and kvm that are enabled by the 
cpu model that you gave to qemu with -cpu.
