I did a quick test on the changes on VM XML definition
```
- <entry name='product'>CloudStack KVM Hypervisor</entry>
+ <entry name='vendor'>CloudStack KVM Hypervisor</entry>
```
what I found are
- `virsh dumpxml` shows there is no `vendor` after the change
```
<sysinfo type='smbios'>
<system>
<entry name='manufacturer'>Apache Software Foundation</entry>
<entry name='uuid'>4d37861f-9be8-472b-af8e-8e896b9ed4b7</entry>
</system>
</sysinfo>
```
- `dmidecode` command shows the product name is changed to `KVM` instead of
`CloudStack KVM Hypervisor`
```
Handle 0x0100, DMI type 1, 27 bytes
System Information
Manufacturer: Apache Software Foundation
- Product Name: CloudStack KVM Hypervisor
+ Product Name: KVM
Version: RHEL 7.6.0 PC (i440FX + PIIX, 1996)
Serial Number: Not Specified
UUID: 4D37861F-9BE8-472B-AF8E-8E896B9ED4B7
```
As I know, this will break the datasource check on CloudStack in cloud-init,
which checks the product name in `dmidecode` output.
```
dscheck_CloudStack() {
is_container && return ${DS_NOT_FOUND}
dmi_product_name_matches "CloudStack*" && return $DS_FOUND
return $DS_NOT_FOUND
}
```

of course you can skip ds-identify by
```
echo "policy: enabled" > /etc/cloud/ds-identify.cfg
```
