Hi Michal,

thanks for the feedback. I'll have to clean up the vdsm/libvirt stuff
first. There's still an issue with NUMA on s390 I have to solve...

Once I'm done with vdsm, I'll provide patches for ovirt-engine. As a
prerequisite for that I need to update ovirt-engine-api-model (new
architecture and a new watchdog device type).
Most of the changes have to do with the s390 cpu type handling, nothing
really fancy.

Maybe a side discussion: I use ovirt-host-deploy to turn a Fedora
installation into a hypervisor. This worked (with minor changes) well
for Fedora 25, but fails for Fedora 26. This is because F26 uses DNF
version 3 whereas the otopi/python dnf plugin refuses to work with DNF
!= 1. Has anyone been hit by that before, and if so, any plans to fix that?
