[kvm-unit-tests,v4,0/4] S390x: CPU Topology Information

Hi,

new version of the series with corrections.

When facility 11 is available inside the S390x architecture, 2 new
instructions are available: PTF and STSI with function code 15.

Let's check their availability in QEMU/KVM and their coherence
with the CPU topology provided to the QEMU -smp parameter and as
argument for the test.

To run these tests successfully you will need both the Linux and the
QEMU patches, at least the following or newer patches:

    https://lkml.org/lkml/2021/8/3/201

    https://lists.nongnu.org/archive/html/qemu-s390x/2021-07/msg00165.html

Then if you have the text you can run directly the unit test or directly
start QEMU with:

# ./s390x-run s390x/topology.elf \
	-smp 5,drawers=2,books=3,sockets=4,cores=4,maxcpus=96 \
	-append "-d 2 -b 3 -s 4 -c 4 -m 96"

If you do not have the patches you can still use the test but only with
the first two topology levels like in:

# ./s390x-run s390x/topology.elf \
	-smp 5,sockets=24,cores=4,maxcpus=96 \
	-append "-s 24 -c 4 -m 96"

Of course the declaration of the number of socket and core must be
coherent.

Regards,
Pierre
