[libvirt PATCH 0/6] libxl: remove enum libxlHwcapVersion
Posted by Ján Tomko 2 years, 7 months ago
While looking at users of virCPU.*Free, I found some code
that is supposed to deal with Xen < 4.7.
The minimum version is 4.9 since the following commit:

    Xen: Bump minimum supported Xen version to 4.9

Remove the code dealing with the old version and use g_auto moer.

Ján Tomko (6):
  libxl: capabilities: assume Xen version >= 4.7
  libxl: remove enum libxlHwcapVersion
  libxl: capsInitCPU: fail if we can't initialize host features
  libxl: refactor libxlCapsInitCPU
  libxl: use g_auto in libxlCapsNodeData
  libxl: use g_auto in libxlDomainGetEmulatorType

Unrelated to anything in this series, but while testing the patches I noticed 
odd values for the 'die_id' attribute in 'virsh capabilities'

   <cpus num='24'>
     <cpu id='0' socket_id='0' die_id='0' core_id='0' siblings='0-1'/>
     <cpu id='1' socket_id='0' die_id='-1073069552' core_id='0' siblings='0-1'/>
     <cpu id='2' socket_id='0' die_id='-1073741696' core_id='1' siblings='2-3'/>
     <cpu id='3' socket_id='0' die_id='-1073317232' core_id='1' siblings='2-3'/>
     <cpu id='4' socket_id='0' die_id='0' core_id='2' siblings='4-5'/>
     ...
   </cpus>

I see commit 7b79ee2f78b uses /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu$num/topology/die_id to 
determine the value. On my test machine, all 
/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu$num/topology/die_id files contain 0. I'll need to 
dig a little deeper to determine why this doesn't work on xen.

Jim
