- A named CPU model is written without check='none' and with
fallback='forbid': libvirt checks before the start that the host runs
it, and it is not swapped for another model.
- Mode maximum is written as that mode; it was written as a model named
maximum.
- Model names up to 64 characters: the -noTSX and -IBRS models, the ones a
mixed set of hosts needs, were refused at 20.
- The mode or model is checked against the host's capabilities when the VM
is defined, from the page and the API alike; no CPU element (QEMU's
oldest default CPU) is no longer offered.
- The default CPU mode setting offers the modes the new VM dialog has;
no-model and custom, which matched none of them, become host-model.
When the server refused a VM create submission (a field error, a busy
resource, a reused submission key, an existing VM name, a missing MAC
for a new disk), the page came back on its first tab with the flavor
dialog closed and every entered value gone: the hand-written fields
showed fixed defaults, and the errors sat in a block at the top of the
page, outside #messages and tied to no field.
The view builds one NewVMForm per create form on the page (custom,
template, one per flavor; create_forms), each with its own defaults; a
hidden form_id, which is also the prefix of the form's field ids, names
the submitted one, and it comes back bound. Every field renders from its
own form and is marked by two small template tags (form_fields:
error_attrs, field_error) when refused; a summary at the top of the
form lists all of its errors, also those of fields it keeps hidden. The
submitted tab or flavor dialog, marked data-form-id, reopens with any
"Advanced" section that holds an error; a reopened dialog shows the
messages too; the template form gets its pool, template and storage
back. base.html's error focus is a function that walks the places an
error can be, and a page can call it once it is set up, as the create
page does. form_id changes nothing in how a POST is processed; one of
an unknown form (a flavor deleted since) has its errors in the
messages. The default video now applies to every create form.
The custom form's disks and networks are not restored yet.
