Cole Robinson f3aa24bd5d virt-install: use default --cpu mode more often
Currently we will only apply the default `--cpu mode=host-passthrough`
config when _no_ `--cpu` config is passed. But this means if a user
configures ex. cpu `<topology>`, we don't set `host-passthrough` and
they get the libvirt/qemu default baseline CPU.

Instead, only skip the default config if the user manually
specified a `mode` or `model` value directly

Virtual Machine Manager

virt-manager is a graphical tool for managing virtual machines via libvirt. Most usage is with QEMU/KVM virtual machines, but Xen and libvirt LXC containers are well supported. Common operations for any libvirt driver should work.

Several command line tools are also provided:

  • virt-install: Create new libvirt virtual machines
  • virt-clone: Duplicate existing libvirt virtual machines
  • virt-xml: Edit existing libvirt virtual machines/manipulate libvirt XML

For dependency info and installation instructions, see the INSTALL.md file. If you just want to quickly test the code from a git checkout, you can launch any of the commands like:

./virt-manager --debug ...
