Rohit Yadav updated CLOUDSTACK-8424:
------------------------------------
    Description: 
Right now, if we want to enable CPU features such as "vmx" on KVM guest vms, 
there is no way to do that. The improvement is to add a flag in 
agent.properties per host that is specific for a host using the property 
"guest.cpu.features=vmx vme" where features are space separated. This will lead 
to adding <feature policy='require' name='vmx'/> in the <cpu> section of the 
created XML. This can be useful to start guest VMs that need vmx, the primary 
purpose is to provision nested virtualized kvm hosts on a kvm host to test 
CloudStack :)
