[Starlingx-discuss] cpu mode

[von Hoesslin, Volker]

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?!

here is the host /proc/cpuinfo
