[Kimchi-devel] [PATCH 0/2] Improve VCPU code

[Jose Ricardo Ziviani]

*IMPORTANT*: This patch depends on cpu hotplug support.

This patchset addresses two issues regarding vcpu:

1 - users cannot update the number of cpus when topology is defined. In
such case, vcpu must always be sockets * cores * threads. If a VM has a
topology defined and we try to simply change vcpu without taking care of
that topology libvirt will complain.

NOTE: Using Kimchi UI, we can define the topology only when creating a
template, it means that thoses values cannot be updated because there is
no interface to do that.

2 - the maximum vcpu returned by libvirt is wrong. In Power it returns
1024 however the VM won't even boot with that value. The right maximum
vcpu must based on host values and that is retrieved using ppc64_cpu
code.

Jose Ricardo Ziviani (2):
   Forbid user to edit CPU value if topology is defined
   Use ppc64_cpu values to retrieve max vcpu value
