Re: [libvirt] [PATCH v3 6/7] virsh: add function to get the CPU models for an arch

I guess for local systems, that's a convenience factor; for remote systems, it's not quite the right thing (using virsh on a ppc box to manage a libvirtd on an x86_64 box for example). Or maybe if --arch is optional, we call GetCapabilities under the hood, and enumerate over ALL possible arches scraped from the capabilities (of course, with slightly different output layout to distinguish which model names correspond to which arches)? That could be a followup patch, though. -- Eric Blake eblake redhat com +1-919-301-3266 Libvirt virtualization library http://libvirt.org
