I'm the tech Bruno has been working with regarding this. QEMU version is 1.5 and the relevant section of the KVM Config file is " <vcpu>4</vcpu><cpu><topology sockets='1' cores='4' threads='1'/></cpu>". We've tried it with 2 sockets, with 4 sockets, with 2 threads, 4 threads, and so on. ACPI and APIC are enabled for the KVM Container.

Seriously I am asking for your help to find out the issue as its unique to OpenBSD. Stop ranting away on the demerits of disabling apm (and now pci - right! wtf?!). Like dude, have you never tried variations of anything except default bsd kernel? Why is tinkering (and not even permanent - just dmesg outputs) considered such an anathema? The world didn't collapse by disabling apm and neither did it work. Did I mention I tried the GENERIC.MP too? I am sure I did...oh right, a line below... Look, I am looking for advice from devs like you on why this is happening? Please chill, I come in peace for christ sake! Telling me to ask them about AP (the only advice so far) is not a good question. -- Bruno Delbono | Cognitive Researcher - Human Behavioural Project Real Sociedad | Española De Antropología | ☎: +1 855 253 5436 ☎: +1 424 354 4700 ________________________________________ From: Theo de Raadt <dera...@cvs.openbsd.org> Sent: Wednesday, November 13, 2013 5:13 PM To: Bruno Delbono Cc: misc@openbsd.org; mlar...@azathoth.net Subject: Re: QEMU CPU cores not showing up > As for why completely random disabling apm and acpi...rant by you and Theo... Bullshit. Perhaps the solution you are looking for is: boot -c > disable pci* You never know, it just might work. We are not ranting. We're telling you that you don't know what the hell you are doing, and you are following bad advice.
