Hi Sharah,

libvirt has recently added flags that are now supported by the new Sandy 
Bridge CPU's from Intel. (Well, to be honest, all flags that are 
implemented in qemu and were missing from libvirt were added.) For the 
CPU model, we didn't add any of them yet, because qemu did not provide 
the models in their code yet.

If you want to use the Sandy Bridge features, you may specify them using 
feature flags you want to use. If you'd like to have the sandy bridge 
cpu added as a supported CPU model, it's possible, as we translate it to 
a lower model with features of the newer cpu. Are there any practicular 
features you would like to have?

For AMD's Bulldozer, the support in qemu is not yet complete, AFAIK.
