Why not just make "hypervisor-vendor=kvm" control only the hypervisor vendor string, and support something like "kvm-hypervisor-level=0" to restore the old cpuid_hv_level=0 behavior? This is similar to the kvmclock case: it would allow us to make "hypervisor-vendor=kvm" use saner values as default, but letting old machine-types to override it for compatibility if required. > > Signed-off-by: Don Slutz > --- > target-i386/cpu.c | 17 +++++++++++++---- > 1 files changed, 13 insertions(+), 4 deletions(-) > > diff --git a/target-i386/cpu.c b/target-i386/cpu.c > index 72a8442..e51b2b1 100644 > --- a/target-i386/cpu.c > +++ b/target-i386/cpu.c > @@ -1250,9 +1250,12 @@ static char *x86_cpuid_get_hv_vendor(Object *obj, Error **errp) > } else if (!strcmp(value, CPUID_HV_VENDOR_XEN) && > env->cpuid_hv_level == CPUID_HV_LEVEL_XEN) { > pstrcpy(value, sizeof(value), "xen"); > - } else if (!strcmp(value, CPUID_HV_VENDOR_KVM) && > - env->cpuid_hv_level == 0) { > - pstrcpy(value, sizeof(value), "kvm"); > + } else if (!strcmp(value, CPUID_HV_VENDOR_KVM)) { > + if (env->cpuid_hv_level == CPUID_HV_LEVEL_KVM) { > + pstrcpy(value, sizeof(value), "kvm1"); > + } else if (env->cpuid_hv_level == 0) { > + pstrcpy(value, sizeof(value), "kvm0"); > + } > } > return value; > } > @@ -1288,7 +1291,13 @@ static void x86_cpuid_set_hv_vendor(Object *obj, const char *value, > env->cpuid_hv_level = CPUID_HV_LEVEL_XEN; > } > pstrcpy(adj_value, sizeof(adj_value), CPUID_HV_VENDOR_XEN); > - } else if (!strcmp(value, "kvm")) { > + } else if (!strcmp(value, "kvm") || !strcmp(value, "kvm1")) { > + if (env->cpuid_hv_level == 0) { > + env->cpuid_hv_level = CPUID_HV_LEVEL_KVM; > + } > + pstrcpy(adj_value, sizeof(adj_value), CPUID_HV_VENDOR_KVM); > + } else if (!strcmp(value, "kvm0")) { > + env->cpuid_hv_level = 0; > pstrcpy(adj_value, sizeof(adj_value), CPUID_HV_VENDOR_KVM); > } else { > pstrcpy(adj_value, sizeof(adj_value), value); > -- > 1.7.1 > -- Eduardo
