Subject: [PATCH v2 1/2] build: include Hyper-V enlightenments in CPUID flags list
Date: Mon,  1 Jun 2026 09:08:09 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260601071633.442590-2-a.bied-charreton@proxmox.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260601071633.442590-1-a.bied-charreton@proxmox.com>

... by sourcing CPU flags from qom-list-properties.

The recognized-CPUID-flags-x86_64 list is generated from QEMU's '-cpu
help' output, which does not advertise Hyper-V enlightenments. Source
the flags from the qom-list-properties QMP command instead to include
them.

Keep only boolean properties, since the custom CPU models config only
supports enable/disable. qom-list-properties also exposes boolean
properties that are neither CPUID flags nor 'hv-*' enlightenments,
exclude those with a static blacklist that must be reviewed on QEMU
bumps.

Also add a trailing newline to the generated output.
