One more ping in attempt to get this in the right direction.
Otherwise
I'll post my next idea and we can go from there :)
I agree with Peter that while the idea might look correct it's too deep.
Thinking about this issue, should a host-passthough CPU definition be
permitted for the baseline & comparison commands? The model represented
under this mode is not considered migration safe and it may make sense
to simply fail early since these commands aim to construct/determine a
migratable CPU model, respectively.
Honestly, I don't know much about this CPU models area, but is that true
even for two identical hosts? Say I have two desktops next to each
other, with the same CPU and I want to migrate. I could use host model,
couldn't I?
Perhaps if a host-passthrough CPU is detected, then an error reporting
something along the lines of "host-passthrough is not supported for
migration" would be sufficient for this?
Thanks again. Hope all is well.
