[Qemu-devel] [PATCH 008/113] spapr: set vsmt to MAX(8, smp_threads)
Posted by Michael Roth 7 years, 7 months ago
From: Laurent Vivier <lvivier@redhat.com>

We ignore silently the value of smp_threads when we set
the default VSMT value, and if smp_threads is greater than VSMT
kernel is going into trouble later.

Fixes: 8904e5a750
("spapr: Adjust default VSMT value for better migration compatibility")
