[Qemu-devel] Subject: [PATCH 00/27] Fix APIC-ID-based CPU topology, take


From: Eduardo Habkost
Subject: [Qemu-devel] Subject: [PATCH 00/27] Fix APIC-ID-based CPU topology, take 3
Date: Wed, 24 Oct 2012 15:49:34 -0200

Overview of patches:
 * 1-3 are just header dependency/conflict cleanups
 * 4 is the APIC ID initialization patch sent earlier by Igor
 * 5-6 change the KVM code to use the APIC ID as vcpu_id, on i386
 * 7-21 refactor the PC initialization code to allow a compatibility
   argument to be easily set by the pc-1.2 machine-init function later
 * 22-23 just make the PC code ready to support APIC IDs != cpu_index
   (but keeps existing behavior)
 * 24 just changes testing infrastructure to allow a target-i386-specific
   unit-test to be added
 * 25 adds utility functions that implement the topology-based APIC ID
   calculation
 * 26 just makes pc-1.2 and pc-1.3 use different machine-init functions
 * 27 finally implements the fix, keeping compatibility on pc-1.2

Changes v2 -> v3:
 * Not creating a new "PC" class, anymore
 * Patch 1: move qemu_open() & qemu_close() to qemu-stdio.h, too
 * Include "[PATCH v5] target-i386: initialize APIC at CPU level" from Igor
 * Let the PC code set the APIC ID directly, between cpu_x86_init() and
   x86_cpu_realize() calls, instead of adding new arguments to X86CPU init
   functions
 * Changes to the PC initialization code: introduce a PCInitArgs struct
 * Use a separate machine init function, that enables the compatibility mode
   on pc-1.2

Changes v1 -> v2:

 * Created a qemu-stdio.h file for some I/O related definitions
 * Now all the topology-based APIC ID calculation logic is inside pc.c
 * I have now created a "PC" object just to carry the machine-type compatibility
   flag that keeps the previous behavior.
   * Dropped the qemu_global_get() function, as it is not needed anymore
 * Fixed compile errors on non-x86 targets with KVM enabled (ppc, s390x)
 * Add more descriptive comments on THE FW_CFG_MAX_CPUS calculation
 * Add pointers to documentation on topology.h

Bug description:

The CPU APIC IDs generated by QEMU are broken if the number of cores-per-socket
or threads-per-core are not powers of 2, as the bits on the APIC ID do not
correspond to what's expected to reflect the CPU sockets/cores/threads
topology[1].

Eduardo Habkost (26):
  move I/O-related definitions from qemu-common.h to a new header
    (qemu-stdio.h)
  cpus.h: include qemu-stdio.h
  hw/apic.c: rename bit functions to not conflict with bitops.h
  kvm: create kvm_arch_vcpu_id() function
  target-i386: kvm: set vcpu_id to APIC ID instead of CPU index
  pc: pc_init1(): always use rom_memory on pc_memory_init() call
  pc: pc_init1(): remove MemoryRegion arguments
  pc: pc_init1(): get QEMUMachineInitArgs argument
  pc: create PCInitArgs struct
  pc: add PC_DEFAULT_CPU_MODEL #define
  pc: add PCInitArgs parameter to pc_cpus_init()
  pc: pass PCInitArgs struct to pc_memory_init()
  pc: use FWCfgState* instead of void* for fw_cfg data
  pc: rename bochs_bios_init() to pc_bios_init()
  pc: pass PCInitArgs struct to pc_bios_init()
  xen_machine_pv: use cpu_init() instead of cpu_x86_init()
  pc: isolate the code that create CPUs
  cpu_x86_init: check for x86_cpu_realize() errors
  target-i386: do not call x86_cpu_realize() on cpu_x86_init()
  fw_cfg: remove FW_CFG_MAX_CPUS from fw_cfg_init()
  pc: set CPU APIC ID explicitly
  pc: set fw_cfg data based on APIC ID calculation
  tests: support target-specific unit tests
  target-i386: topology & APIC ID utility functions
  pc: create separate init function for pc-1.3
  pc: generate APIC IDs according to CPU topology
