From baca59a53841acccdd7be4de358785e66b5e4cb5 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Daniel Henrique Barboza Date: Wed, 10 Jun 2020 15:35:51 -0300 Subject: [PATCH] qemu_domain.c: NUMA CPUs auto-fill for incomplete topologies Libvirt allows the user to define an incomplete NUMA topology, where the sum of all CPUs in each cell is less than the total of VCPUs. What ends up happening is that QEMU allocates the non-enumerated CPUs in the first NUMA node. This behavior is being flagged as 'to be deprecated' at least since QEMU commit ec78f8114bc4 ("numa: use possible_cpus for not mapped CPUs check"). In [1], Maxiwell suggested that we forbid the user to define such topologies. In his review [2], Peter Krempa pointed out that we can't break existing guests, and suggested that Libvirt should emulate the QEMU behavior of putting the remaining vCPUs in the first NUMA node in these cases. This patch implements Peter Krempa's suggestion. Since we're going to most likely end up with disjointed NUMA configuration in node 0 after the auto-fill, we're making auto-fill dependent on QEMU_CAPS_NUMA. A following patch will update the documentation not just to inform about the auto-fill mechanic with incomplete NUMA topologies, but also to discourage the user to create such topologies in the future. This approach also makes Libvirt independent of whether QEMU changes its current behavior since we're either auto-filling the CPUs in node 0 or the user (hopefully) is aware that incomplete topologies, although supported in Libvirt, are to be avoided.
