Not as far as I know, beyond the limitations on the Affinity fields (Aff0 recommended to be 0..15, and the total number allowed via all 4 affinity fields). In any case, if you want to impose a compile-time limit in the QEMU code then you need to point out the part of the GIC spec that imposes that limit. thanks -- PMM
