[ovirt-devel] What is involved in adding new CPU support?

2019-07-27 Thread Matt Mossholder
Hi everyone,
 I am interested in adding Ryzen/Ryzen 2 / Ryzen 3 CPU support to
OVirt. I've seen a few references on the net to people adding in EPYC
support by updating a PostgresSQL DB table (e.g.
https://lists.ovirt.org/archives/list/us...@ovirt.org/thread/T3XL6NU7SUPYLYFL4TEKLOZTBWY6ID3S/
).

Would this really be all that is needed? If so, how do I determine the
correct string to add to the table?  If EYPC is "7:AMD
EPYC:svm,nx,model_EPYC:EPYC:x86_64;", would Ryzen be something like "7:AMD
RYZEN:svm,nx,model_RYZEN:RYZEN:x86_64;"?

IIRC, oVirt is getting the CPU support from libvirt, so if libvirt supports
it, oVirt should support it.
Regarding AMD - I didn't see any new patches from AMD for the new Zen-2
support, and I'm not sure if something changed from Zen-1/Zen+ regarding
virtualization...
