One more ping in attempt to get this in the right direction. Otherwise I'll post my next idea and we can go from there :)
I agree with Peter that while the idea might look correct it's too deep.
Thinking about this issue, should a host-passthough CPU definition be permitted for the baseline & comparison commands? The model represented under this mode is not considered migration safe and it may make sense to simply fail early since these commands aim to construct/determine a migratable CPU model, respectively.
Honestly, I don't know much about this CPU models area, but is that true even for two identical hosts? Say I have two desktops next to each other, with the same CPU and I want to migrate. I could use host model, couldn't I?
Perhaps if a host-passthrough CPU is detected, then an error reporting something along the lines of "host-passthrough is not supported for migration" would be sufficient for this? Thanks again. Hope all is well.
