RE: [Xen-devel] million cycle interrupt
I have only tried increasing the max_phys_cpus from 32 to 64, 96 etc. I would
think that decreasing it to 4 means that only the first 4 LCPUS were booted.
The rest should have been ignored.

Thanks Aravindh!
Hmmm... I'm suspicious of this. When compiled with
max_phys_cpus=4, xm info shows nr_cpus=4, nr_nodes=1,
cores_per_socket=1 and threads_per_core=1. Without
this compile option, cores_per_socket=4 and
threads_per_core=2... so I would expect only one
of these to change. Hopefully the compile option
is simply changing the data reported by xm info.
It appears the guest still is using 4 physical processors.
