2014-04-10 Thread Alexey Kardashevskiy
At the moment generic version-less CPUs are supported via hardcoded aliases. For example, POWER7 is an alias for POWER7_v2.1. So when QEMU is started with -cpu POWER7, the POWER7_v2.1 class instance is created. This approach works for TCG and KVMs other than HV KVM. HV KVM cannot emulate PVR value
