Re: [Xen-devel] VCPU cores & sockets
so...if I read your patch, and the intel manual properly -
CPUID.4:EAX[31:26] + 1 is the number of cores...
...
# '4:eax=0x3,ebx=0x0,ecx=0x0,edx=0x0',
# '0x80000000:eax=0x3,ebx=0x0,ecx=0x0,edx=0x0']
...
This would set the EAX of leaf 4 to 3 - indicating a dual core processor?
Am I understanding that config file correctly?

Can we present cores vs sockets for guest VCPUs?
Right now, the number of total processors can be specified, but can
we specify cores per socket?
I see this potentially being an hvmloader function, as part of its
acpi build code.
Could this be accomplished more generally?
Ben,
This already exists, It's supported via a CPUID configuration.
Right now there are just some comments in the xmexample.hvm file.
I think it would be better to have an entry in the config file like
you suggest. I will work on that.
Cheers,
