If you are looking to do nested virt with OVMF, first of all I recommend the following blog to your attention: https://ladipro.wordpress.com/ I think Eduardo must have a bunch of blog posts on CPU models as well: https://habkost.net/ Second, if you add the +vmx flag to your CPU model on the QEMU command line, or in the libvirt domain XML, then QEMU will expose that to OVMF in a dedicated fw_cfg file ("etc/msr_feature_control"), and OVMF will set the Feature Control MSR accordingly, on all the CPUs in the guest. Please refer to the following: - TianoCore BZ <https://bugzilla.tianocore.org/show_bug.cgi?id=86> - edk2 commit dbab994991c7 ("OvmfPkg/PlatformPei: program MSR_IA32_FEATURE_CONTROL from fw_cfg", 2016-07-07). IOW, with the caveats described in Ladi's and Eduardo's blogs, just add the +vmx flag to your CPU model, and you should be good to go.
