> Many (all?) versions of Windows only support a maximum of 2 cpu sockets but 
> can have many cores per socket. libvirt presents vcpus as single core cpu 
> sockets by default. This results in Windows reservations on KVM hosts only 
> seeing 2 cpus even if more are assigned. Setting the topology in the cpu 
> section of the xml such that there are 2 sockets with the number of cores 
> evenly divided between them allows for all assigned cpus to show up (unless 
> the VM has an odd number assigned, in which case, it will be one less; the 
> frontend should be updated to require 1 core or an even number of cores).
