From b10fbd5363e58a9996ad9af0f8f456d89770b0a9 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Eric Auger Date: Fri, 22 Jun 2018 13:28:38 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] hw/arm/virt: Increase max_cpus to 512 virt 3.0 now allows up to 512 vcpus whereas for earlier machine types, max_cpus was set to 255 and any attempt to start the machine with vcpus > 255 was rejected at a very early stage, in vl.c/main level. 512 is the max supported by KVM. Anyway the actual vcpu count that can be achieved depends on other parameters such as the acceleration mode, the vgic version, the host kernel version. Those are discovered later on.
