Actually ME and PSP are quite important for modern security. Without them you lose significant important features like (proper) IOMMU isolation, TXT, memory encryption, etc. And you can use measured boot to ensure that they haven't been tampered with to add a backdoor.

taskset -c 0 cpuid -1r(click to expand)Note that this VPS is not using host CPU passthrough. In fact, it's using the default QEMU CPU model, so it lacks AES-NI, PCLMULQDQ, AVX2, and nearly all other modern ISA extensions. I've asked the provider to enable CPU passthrough (he's done it before on request) and then I'll re-do the YABS.
