Hi Matt,
Are you running this nested in a VM by chance (that is using qemu w/o kvm acceleration)? I ask because in this case I would expect this line in the guest XML is causing it to fail:
<vcpu placement='static' cpuset='0-1'>1</vcpu>
...as qemu does not support pinning when kvm isn't available. What's not clear to me is why the Ubuntu version would be adding this line since it sounds like master/kilo-3 is behaving correctly per the spec (only adding these lines where the user explicitly requests direct pinning of CPUs on the image or flavor [1]).
Thanks,
Steve
