Hi everybody,
with this being an issue for so long but nobody than "us" (=canonical STS + canonical Dev) caring I wonder if we should even switch that on again - since it is also disabled upstream intentionally as Serge reported.

The question is if users that want/need it can enable it.
So I wonder if the following would enable it again as it should:
via libvirt
    <cpu mode'custom' match='exact'>
        <model>qemu64</model>
        <feature name='svm' policy='require'/>
    </cpu>
via cmdline
 qemu -cpu qemu64,+svm

@smb - could you test this on the AMD system when you find some time?
If it works I'd think we could close this bug without changing something.
