Hello fellow Qemu aficionados,On Windows, Qemu sets the affinity mask in order to run all thread on CPU0, with this comment in the code (os-win32.c:182): /* Note: cpu_interrupt() is currently not SMP safe, so we force QEMU to run on a single CPU */ This was added by Fabrice Bellard in 2006 (git show a8e5ac33d). I can't find/understand any reason for this CPU affinity restriction.
Have you tried looking for a justification in the mailing lists? Also, I suppose you have tested without the affinity mask and it works?
Offhand I cannot think of why that would be needed. Paolo
