_with_ this additional query. Meaning the involved overhead would be ok - in my
opinion for s390x.
What we could do to avoid one compare operation would be:
a) Expand the host model
b) Expand the target model (because on s390x we could have migration unsafe
model)
c) Work with the runnability information returned via query-cpu-definitions
But as we have to do b) either way on s390x, we can directly do a compare
operation. (which makes implementation a lot simpler, because libvirt then
doesn't have to deal with any feature/model names).
But why do you even need to do any comparison? Isn't it possible to let
QEMU do it when a domain starts? The thing is we should avoid doing
completely different things on each architecture.
