Series hw/i386/pc: Update max_cpus and default to SMBIOS | expand

Commit Message

Suravee Suthikulpanit June 5, 2023, 9:39 p.m. UTC
Currently, pc-q35 and pc-i44fx machine models are default to use SMBIOS 2.8
(32-bit entry point). Since SMBIOS 3.0 (64-bit entry point) is now fully
supported since QEMU 7.0, default to use SMBIOS 3.0 for newer machine
models. This is necessary to avoid the following message when launching
a VM with large number of vcpus.

   "SMBIOS 2.1 table length 66822 exceeds 65535"

Note that user can still override the entry point tyme w/ QEMU option
"-M ..., smbios-entry-point-type=[32|64].

why pcms->smbios_entry_point_type that we already have is not enough
we need to add extra pcms->smbios_use_cmdline_ep_type field?

what Michael referred to as duplication is probably these lines,
however "smbios-entry-point-type: is machine property so we can't
use device compat machinery here (pc_compat_8_0).
What we can do is override "default_machine_opts" value, but then
again it has to be opencoded in  piix4/q35_machine_options, so
don't see a point in doing so.
As you wrote here is what typically do for machine compat knobs,
so it should be fine.

I just doubt that we need extra default_smbios_ep_type field.

I'll get rid of this in V5.

Ok

> I just doubt that we need extra default_smbios_ep_type field.

I introduce pcmc->default_smbios_ep_type because I could not get to 
pcms->smbios_entry_point_type from these functions. Any suggestions?

Anyhow, I'll send out v5 with some more clean up.

Thanks,
