[Qemu-devel] [PATCH 1/1] spapr: Check SMT based on KVM_CAP_PPC_SMT_POSSIBLE |
Date: |
Fri, 5 Jan 2018 22:47:22 -0200 |
Power9 supports 4 HW threads/core but it's possible to emulate
doorbells to implement virtual SMT. KVM has the KVM_CAP_PPC_SMT_POSSIBLE
which returns a bitmap with all SMT modes supported by the host.
Today, QEMU forces the SMT mode based on PVR compat table, this is
silently done in spapr_fixup_cpu_dt. Then, if user passes thread=8 the
guest will end up with 4 threads/core without any feedback to the user.
It is confusing and will crash QEMU if a cpu is hotplugged in that
guest.
This patch makes use of KVM_CAP_PPC_SMT_POSSIBLE to check if the host
supports the SMT mode so it allows Power9 guests to have 8 threads/core
if desired.
