Don't we need x2APIC support to provide >255 CPUs? Where so you enforce this, i.e. keep the restriction to 255 CPUs when we are not in KVM mode with in-kernel APIC (the emulate APIC lacks x2APIC mode, unfortunately)? But, wait, KVM only supports up to 255 VCPUs. So what are you targeting at? Jan -- Siemens AG, Corporate Technology, CT RTC ITP SES-DE Corporate Competence Center Embedded Linux
