Hi,
it didn't let me calm down that we had the qemu QMP reporting VMX as off.
I mean I have heard (there never was an Ubuntu bug, but people on IRC have run 
into it) of issues that people needed to regen capabilities.
After checking the logs of yesterday I found the trap that you laid for me :-)
When checking QMP we were on a system that really had
  $ cat /sys/module/kvm_intel/parameters/nested
  N
So the bit in the cpuid was off.
But when we made the cross check with the cpuid tool we were on a different 
system, probably with
  $ cat /sys/module/kvm_intel/parameters/nested
  Y
But the caps cache not regenerated. Hence there the tool reported the bit to be 
set.


That red herring put aside I can let go my confusion and focus on what is 
ahead, as discussed on IRC we might want to look into :
a) verifying the triggers for a reload today properly working (e.g. new qemu 
binary)
b) consider adding more triggers (maybe: libvirtd restart, module load times, 
surely: reboot)

Not sure if that will be today or next week.
But with manually cleaning the /var/cache/libvirt/qemu/capabilities/ gives you 
a workaround until then.
