Subject: [PATCH] hw/smbios: fix thead count field in type 4 table
X-Mailer: git-send-email 2.39.1
The thread_count value in smbios type_4 table should be
(ms->smp.cores * ms->smp.threads). As according to smbios spec 7.5
Processor Information (Type 4), the field "Thread Count" means the
"Number of threads per processor socket" rather than number of
threads per core.
When apply this patch, use "-smp 4,sockets=1,cores=2,threads=2" to
boot VM, the dmidecode -t 4 shows like:
Handle 0x0400, DMI type 4, 48 bytes
Processor Information
Socket Designation: CPU 0
...
Core Count: 2
Core Enabled: 2
Thread Count: 4
Characteristics: None

Hi Ani & Tianrui,
From the comment of CpuTopology (include/hw/boards.h):
ms->cores means the "the number of cores in one cluster".
ms->threads means the "the number of threads in one core".
So ms->cores * ms->threads means the number of threads in one cluster
not one socket.
That's why I count the number of threads in a socket by "ms->smp.max_cpus
/ ms->smp.sockets" in [1].
The other correct way is:
ms->smp.cluster * ms->smp.cores * ms->smp.threads.

ohh, we do not notice your patch. Your patch is better than us. one small
nit about core_count calcuation if cluster/die is support. core count should
be core number
per package rather than per cluster or per die.
so it should be something like this?
t->core_count = cpus_per_socket / ms->smp.threads
rather than ms->smp.cores
Yes, I also fixed this in the third patch of my patch series [2].

Great, that sounds good to me.
