I now understand better the diag288 case, but I still don't understand the TYPE_APIC one. It has no DeviceClass::reset(), its abstract parent TYPE_APIC_COMMON register apic_reset_common() but being TYPE_DEVICE it is not on a qbus. It is somehow connected to the X86CPU object, but the single call to apic_init_reset() is from do_cpu_init() - not a reset method -. Is apic_reset_common() dead code? I don't think so because git-blame report activity: 2013-11-05 266) static void apic_reset_common(DeviceState *dev) 2011-10-16 267) { 2013-11-05 268) APICCommonState *s = APIC_COMMON(dev); 2012-02-17 269) APICCommonClass *info = APIC_COMMON_GET_CLASS(s); 2015-04-07 270) uint32_t bsp; 2011-10-16 271) 2015-04-07 272) bsp = s->apicbase & MSR_IA32_APICBASE_BSP; 2015-04-07 273) s->apicbase = APIC_DEFAULT_ADDRESS | bsp | MSR_IA32_APICBASE_ENABLE; 2016-10-19 274) s->id = s->initial_apic_id; 2011-10-16 275) 2017-01-31 276) apic_reset_irq_delivered(); 2017-01-31 277) 2012-02-17 278) s->vapic_paddr = 0; 2012-02-17 279) info->vapic_base_update(s); 2012-02-17 280) 2013-11-05 281) apic_init_reset(dev); 2011-10-16 282) } Cc'ing APIC maintainers because I'm lost.
