I think this is basically the right approach, and I've applied to ppc-for-2.7. Here's my plan for what to do about all this id stuff: 1. Merge this to ppc-for-2.7 (done) 2. Assuming there are now show-stoppers in testing, send a pull request tomorrow 3. Once this is merged, try to get Igor's series (or a respin of it) in ASAP. I'm hoping that will give us good-enough hotplug for 2.7. In the 2.8 timeframe, I want to: 4. Disconnect KVM vcpu ID from dt_id, instead calculate it from (now stable) cpu_index 5. Remove dt_id as a cpu field - instead just compute DT ids from the (now stable) cpu_index when we build the DT 6. (for new machine type versions) Change DT ID assignment, so it no longer depends on kvmppc_smt_threads(). The current scheme means that migration between hosts with different native SMT values won't work, which is unfortunate. I suspect there may be other problems with any real situation where that's the case, but nontheless it's a silly restriction. Nice to have but bigger scope things for 2.8: 7. Update archs to they *all* call cpu_exec_init() / cpu_exec_exit() at realize / unrealize time instead of init / finalize time. 8. Update all archs and machines to use stable cpu_index

The goal of this patch is to have a stable core-id which does not depend on any DT related semantics, which involve non-obvious computations on modern PowerPC server cpus. With this patch, the DT core id is computed on-demand as: (core-id / smp_threads) * smt where smt is the number of threads per core in the host. This formula should be consolidated in a helper since it is needed in several places. Other uses for core-id includes: compute a stable cpu_index (which allows random order hotplug/unplug without breaking migration) and NUMA. Signed-off-by: Greg Kurz <groug@kaod.org> --- It was first suggested here: https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/qemu-devel/2016-07/msg01727.html and as option 1) in the following discussion on IRC: <dwg> imammedo, basically the options are: 1) change core-ids to be 0, 1, .. n and compute cpu_index as core_id * threads + thread#, or 2) leave core-ids as they are and calculate cpu_index as core-id / smt * threads + thread# It is based on David's ppc-for-2.7 branch (commit bb6268f35f457). It is lightly tested but I could at least do in-order hotplug/unplug. hw/ppc/spapr.c | 10 +++++----- hw/ppc/spapr_cpu_core.c | 24 +++++++++++------------- 2 files changed, 16 insertions(+), 18 deletions(-)
