[Qemu-devel] [Bug 654913] [NEW] Windows XP uses 200% CPU when given 2 VC

Subject: [Qemu-devel] [Bug 654913] [NEW] Windows XP uses 200% CPU when given 2 VCPUs
Date: Mon, 04 Oct 2010 23:41:21 -0000

Public bug reported:

When using libvirt to give a domain 2 CPUs (<domain
type='kvm'><vcpu>2</vcpu></domain>), the Windows XP kvm process will use
200% CPU when Windows is idle. Switching the number of CPUs back to 1,
the kvm process gives normal idle percentages.

Using libvirt 0.8.3-1ubuntu9, tried with the following qemu-kvm
packages:

qemu-kvm_0.12.4+noroms-0ubuntu7_amd64.deb
qemu-kvm_0.12.5+noroms-0ubuntu4_amd64.deb

The smp flag being set by libvirt is:

-smp 2,sockets=2,cores=1,threads=1
