I did something like this to give my DomU the lowest common feature set between
my AMD and Intel based servers for live migration:
cpuid = [ '0:eax=0x3,ebx=0x0,ecx=0x0,edx=0x0',
'1:eax=0x06b1,ecx=xxxxxxxxxxx0000xx00xxx0000000xx0,edx=xxx00000xxxxxxx0xxxxxxxxx0xxxxxx',
'4:eax=0x3,ebx=0x0,ecx=0x0,edx=0x0',
'0x80000000:eax=0x3,ebx=0x0,ecx=0x0,edx=0x0']
But I haven't tried it in a while so I can't tell if it still works as it
should. I do know that Silverlight won't install with the above because it
requires some feature that I've masked out.
There are some other examples in the example configs I think.
