Hello, I have an H11DSi-NT board with 2 * EPYC 7281 16C/32T CPUs.
On that box for some reason spmboot things '4' logical packages are possible. Max CPUs can be 128 ( 2 * 32C/64T ), however only 2 CPUs are possible not 4 and therefor there is no way to add other 64 hotplug CPUs. ( not even sure cpu hotplug will work here ) $ dmesg | egrep "smpboot|NR_CPUS|CPUs" [ 0.000000] smpboot: Allowing 128 CPUs, 64 hotplug CPUs [ 0.000000] setup_percpu: NR_CPUS:8192 nr_cpumask_bits:128 nr_cpu_ids:128 nr_node_ids:8 [ 0.000000] SLUB: HWalign=64, Order=0-3, MinObjects=0, CPUs=128, Nodes=8 [ 0.000000] RCU restricting CPUs from NR_CPUS=8192 to nr_cpu_ids=128.
