=> btw, how can this cmd-line handle the spaces in argument "-smbios" or just "ps aux" remove the ' " ' ?

this is an running VM without any changes, created and started on top starlingx (2x controller, 2x compute, 3x storage). and yes, there is no "-cpu host" argument !?

this ends in something like this in guest view:

here are some outputs from my flavor metadata trys:

hw:cpu_model = SandyBridge
=> No valid host was found. There are not enough hosts available. compute-0: (VCpuModelFilter) Host VCPU model EPYC-IBPB required SandyBridge, compute-1: (VCpuModelFilter) Host VCPU model EPYC-IBPB required SandyBridge
of course, SandyBridge is an intel CPU, but all of allowed CPU architectures for meta extra specs "hw:cpu_model" are Intel devices, so i need AMD! do you remember:

$ openstack flavor set --property hw:cpu_model=EPYC-IBPB 76609f7b-f0c7-48ca-8c8a-f78481e62cd4
Failed to set flavor property: Invalid hw:cpu_model 'EPYC-IBPB', must be one of: Passthrough, Conroe, Penryn, Nehalem, Westmere, SandyBridge, IvyBridge, Haswell, Broadwell-noTSX, Broadwell, Skylake-Client, Skylake-Server.

how can i edit this allowed CPU-Model-List?!

the nova.conf settings define no CPU config, so the hyperviser has to handle this:

# cat /etc/nova/nova.conf | grep cpu_mode
libvirt_cpu_mode = none
cpu_mode=none

so this is an deadlock for me, i do not know how to fix this :(

plz help, volker...

Hi Volker,

Could you please send me the QEMU command line used to launch your VM, this is in
order to check the QEMU arguments/flags, possibly it requires "-cpu host" argument.

Thanks.

Best regards.
Mario.

Subject: Re: [Starlingx-discuss] cpu mode

it is impossible to set a EPIC (or any other AMD) as guest CPU?

$ openstack flavor set --property hw:cpu_model=EPYC-IBPB 76609f7b-f0c7-48ca-8c8a-f78481e62cd4

Command Failed: One or more of the operations failed

but my compute node seems to support EPIC CPUs?

cat /usr/share/libvirt/cpu_map/x86_EPYC-IBRS.xml

<cpus>
  <model name='EPYC-IBPB'>
    <signature family='23' model='1'/>
    <vendor name='AMD'/>
    <feature name='3dnowprefetch'/>
 ....
    <feature name='xsavec'/>
    <feature name='xsaveopt'/>
  </model>
</cpus>

some tips for me how to handle this?

Betreff: [Starlingx-discuss] cpu mode

hi,
my setup has two computes nodes, every node has a dual AMD EPYC 7601 CPU config. how can i bring all the CPU features (AES, SSSE3, ...) to the guest VMs. i have tryed with some flavor-metadata but nothing realy helps, the VMs getting just a little subset
 of cpu-features.
some investigations to the kvm-settings hit me to the facts that my nova config has "cpu_model=none" !? how can i fix that and bring my AMD EPIC CPU to my nova-config?!
