Please consider amending the commit log to something like below.

The default "prealloc-threads" value is set to 1 when the property is
added by commit ffac16fab33b ("hostmem: introduce "prealloc-threads"
property") in v5.0.0. The default value is conflicting with the sugar
property as the value provided by the sugar property is number of CPUs.


What is the sugar property?  Can you explain the conflict in a bit more
detail?


my guess is that Gavin means mem_prealloc compat glue in 
qemu_process_sugar_options()

property value should be set according to following order
   default -> compat -> explicit value
so I don't see any conflict here.

PS:
if it we up to me, default would have stayed 1,
and prealloc-threads fixup to vCPUs number would happen in vl.c
similar to what is done in qemu_process_sugar_options(),
keeping backend clean of external dependencies.
   


Yes, it's the sugar property I was talking about. I'm not sure if
we have a more popular name for this property: compat property or
sugar property.

When 'mem-prealloc=on' and 'prealloc-threads=xxx' aren't provided,
the value is 1 before commit f8d426a6852c is applied. It's not
inconsistent with 'mem-prealloc=on'. It's the conflict I was talking
about and it's fixed by commit f8d426a6852c


default was not supposed to be consistent with legacy mem-prealloc
and sugar property takes care of mem-prealloc=on case.

so commit message in its current form looks fine to me.



Ok, thanks for your confirm. I think Zhenyu needs to post v4, to fix
the 80 characters limitation issue. My reviewed-by is still valid.

  

The conflict has been fixed by commit f8d426a6852c ("hostmem: default
the amount of prealloc-threads to smp-cpus"). However, 'qapi/qom.json'
was missed to be updated accordingly in the commit.

Update 'qapi/qom.json' to reflect the change in commit f8d426a6852c.

Signed-off-by: Zhenyu Zhang 

When a specific commit is mentioned in the commit log, we usually have
fixed format like below.

commit ffac16fab33b ("hostmem: introduce "prealloc-threads" property")
commit f8d426a6852c ("hostmem: default the amount of prealloc-threads to 
smp-cpus")


This is certainly a common format, but the other one is also in use.

So you probably need:

Still exceeds :)

I suggested

  # @prealloc-threads: number of CPU threads to use for prealloc
  #(default: number of CPUs) (since 5.0)

Please consider amending the commit log to something like below.

The default "prealloc-threads" value is set to 1 when the property is
added by commit ffac16fab33b ("hostmem: introduce "prealloc-threads"
property") in v5.0.0. The default value is conflicting with the sugar
property as the value provided by the sugar property is number of CPUs.
The conflict has been fixed by commit f8d426a6852c ("hostmem: default
the amount of prealloc-threads to smp-cpus"). However, 'qapi/qom.json'
was missed to be updated accordingly in the commit.

Update 'qapi/qom.json' to reflect the change in commit f8d426a6852c.

The line seems exceeding 80 characters. It'd better to limit each line in 75 
characters.
So you probably need:

# @prealloc-threads: number of CPU threads to use for prealloc (default: 
number of CPUs)
#(since 5.0)

Thanks,
Gavin
