Hey! So, I noticed this osstests report and got curious about one thing, which looks weird to me... If I am missing something obvious, sorry for the noise.

In fact, from, e.g., [1], I see that we have 2 pCPUs: nr_cpus : 2 ... cpu_topology : cpu: core socket node 0: 0 0 0 1: 0 0 0 At the same time, in [2] and [3], I see that we're trying to run a guest with 4 vCPUs. E.g.: Name ID Mem VCPUs State Time(s) Domain-0 0 512 2 r----- 468.5 debian.guest.osstest 3 511 4 -b---- 21.1 Isn't it the case that a guest that has more vCPUs than the host has pCPUs is conceptually wrong and, even if it sometimes works, prone to (heisen)bugs?
