Hi everyone,
Currently nova exposes all the host CPU instruction set extensions available
on the compute node in the host state, and there is a scheduler filter
`ComputeCapabilitiesFilter` which looks at these.
But the limits on this is:
CPU instruction set in ComputeCapabilitiesFilter should be guest's view instead of host's.
Admin may use specific set of CPU instruction to deploy instance to make
it migratable in a heterogeneous cloud.
This is actually by design in nova as nova is using baselineCPU
andallowed to pass/config guest CPU instruction feature for instance.
Shall we add a string “guest_features” in ``ComputeNode`` object as ``ComputeNode:cpu_info:guest_features`` And let ComputeCapabilitiesFilter use guest_features instead of host features here?
Is this a real gap ? and the above easy fix is the right way ?

FWIW, we had a discussion during the Design Summit on the scheduler Nova design session about host capabilities and what we call "qualitative resources" [1]

A first step for helping our users to discover the CPU capabilities is to provide a Nova abstraction between all our related hypervisor driver features and you can comment on a proposal [2]

HTH,
