FWIW, I'm following along from the OpenStack 'Nova' (it allows you to
provision VMs / QEMU instances) point of view.
Here is a bug (filed by Eduardo) that is tracking what needs to fixed in
Nova:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1581414 -- OpenStack
shouldn't break if the default machine-type in QEMU is "q35"
Refer to comment#6 and comment#11 for some analysis as to where Nova
makes assumptions for machine types. (There is one instance of it.)
Related: Elsewhere on this KM-long thread, Dan Berrangé and myself have
noted how Nova allows configuring machine types today -- either via
setting a config attribute (in /etc/nova/nova.conf) per Compute node
(where QEMU processes are launched) or via setting a metadata property
per template disk image, which is used to launch Nova instances (VMs).
