Ok, sorry, Simon, for taking so long. As it turns out, cpu hotplug is
simply not yet supported. It had been implemented in qemu-kvm, but near
as I can tell it was dropped when it failed to get into qemu.
However, qemu should at least fail more gracefully, or, failing that,
libvirt should be refusing to ask qemu to hotplug cpus. If we can't get
this fixed upstream soon, then we should carry a patch for LTS.
** Changed in: qemu-kvm (Ubuntu)
Importance: Low => High
** Also affects: libvirt (Ubuntu)
Importance: Undecided
Status: New
