I've changed it to that.

How would you suggest we handle this then? If it's not set, we can't
return 0's or 1's.
All 0's won't work:
# virsh edit domainname
error: XML error: Invalid CPU topology
Failed. Try again? [y,n,f,?]:
All 1's as a default but a change in the vcpus would lead to an error:
# virsh edit domainname
error: Maximum CPUs greater than topology limit
Failed. Try again? [y,n,f,?]:

The structure was like that already. I just put in the new value for
sockets. I didn't look too deeply into how the rest of the code uses the
osifno spec information, but I left it as-is so as not to break any
current functionality.

Yes. With all 1's as the default, the cpus can be left as-is.
I'm adding a check in the vmtemplates code to make sure that this value
is always a product of the three values.
When we add in some intelligence, we can set the vcpu to be a multiple.

Sure! I was wondering about that. I just stuck with how it was being
done everywhere else, but I like that method.

ACK. Thanks.
