The thread_count value in smbios type_4 table should be (ms->smp.cores * ms->smp.threads). As according to smbios spec 7.5 Processor Information (Type 4), the field "Thread Count" means the "Number of threads per processor socket" rather than number of threads per core.
When apply this patch, use "-smp 4,sockets=1,cores=2,threads=2" to boot VM, the dmidecode -t 4 shows like: Handle 0x0400, DMI type 4, 48 bytes Processor Information Socket Designation: CPU 0 ... Core Count: 2 Core Enabled: 2 Thread Count: 4 Characteristics: None Signed-off-by: Tianrui Zhao <zhaotian...@loongson.cn> --- hw/smbios/smbios.c | 7 ++++--- 1 file changed, 4 insertions(+), 3 deletions(-) diff --git a/hw/smbios/smbios.c b/hw/smbios/smbios.c index d2007e70fb..56aeaa069d 100644 --- a/hw/smbios/smbios.c +++ b/hw/smbios/smbios.c @@ -713,6 +713,7 @@ static void smbios_build_type_4_table(MachineState *ms, unsigned instance) { char sock_str[128]; size_t tbl_len = SMBIOS_TYPE_4_LEN_V28; + int count; if (smbios_ep_type == SMBIOS_ENTRY_POINT_TYPE_64) { tbl_len = SMBIOS_TYPE_4_LEN_V30; @@ -749,15 +750,15 @@ static void smbios_build_type_4_table(MachineState *ms, unsigned instance) t->core_count = (ms->smp.cores > 255) ? 0xFF : ms->smp.cores; t->core_enabled = t->core_count; - - t->thread_count = (ms->smp.threads > 255) ? 0xFF : ms->smp.threads; + count = ms->smp.cores * ms->smp.threads; + t->thread_count = (count > 255) ? 0xFF : count; t->processor_characteristics = cpu_to_le16(0x02); /* Unknown */ t->processor_family2 = cpu_to_le16(0x01); /* Other */ if (tbl_len == SMBIOS_TYPE_4_LEN_V30) { t->core_count2 = t->core_enabled2 = cpu_to_le16(ms->smp.cores); - t->thread_count2 = cpu_to_le16(ms->smp.threads); + t->thread_count2 = cpu_to_le16(count); } SMBIOS_BUILD_TABLE_POST; -- 2.39.1
