The response for query-cpu-definitions didn't include the
unavailable-features field, which is used by libvirt to figure
out whether a certain cpu model is usable on the host.
The unavailable features are now computed by obtaining the host CPU
model and comparing it against the known CPU models. The comparison
takes into account the generation, the GA level and the feature
bitmaps. In the case of a CPU generation/GA level mismatch
a feature called "type" is reported to be missing.
As a result, the output of virsh domcapabilities would change
from something like
...
<mode name='custom' supported='yes'>
<model usable='unknown'>z10EC-base</model>
<model usable='unknown'>z9EC-base</model>
<model usable='unknown'>z196.2-base</model>
<model usable='unknown'>z900-base</model>
<model usable='unknown'>z990</model>
...
to
...
<mode name='custom' supported='yes'>
<model usable='yes'>z10EC-base</model>
<model usable='yes'>z9EC-base</model>
<model usable='no'>z196.2-base</model>
<model usable='yes'>z900-base</model>
<model usable='yes'>z990</model>
...
