 There is no kvm-apic upstream yet, so it's hard to judge why we need
 this here. If we do, this has to be a separate patch. But I seriously
 doubt we need it (my hack worked without it, and that was not because of

Maybe I was seeing ghosts: I thought that there is a race window between
VCPU_CREATE and the last initialization IOCTL when we allow other VCPUs
to interact with the new one already. However, I do not find the
scenario again ATM.

But if you want to move the VCPU resource initialization completely over
the VCPU thread, you also have to handle env->halted in that context.
See [1] for this topic and associated todos.

And don't forget the cpu_synchronize_post_init. Running this after each

There is no kvm-apic upstream yet, so it's hard to judge why we need

The LAPIC is part of the CPU, the classic APIC was a dedicated chip.

Sorry, a little puzzle.  I think x86 interrupt system consists of two
parts: IOAPIC/LAPIC.
For we have "hw/ioapic.c" to simulate IOAPIC,  I think "hw/apic.c"
takes the role as LAPIC,
especially that we create an APICState instance for each CPUX86State,
just like each LAPIC
for x86 CPU in real machine.
So we can consider apic_init() to create a LAPIC instance, rather than
create a  "classic APIC"?

So "the classic APIC was a dedicated chip" what you said, play this

Could you tell me a sample chipset of APIC, and I can increase my

I think Jan meant the PIC was a dedicated chip.  hw/apic.c implements an LAPIC, 
hw/i8259.c implements an I8259A otherwise known as the PIC.  hw/ioapic.c 
implements an I/O APIC.


Together, the I/O APIC and the LAPIC form an 'APIC Architecture'.  Usually, the 
legacy PIC can hang off of the BSP LAPIC.

Great job. And I am interesting about it. Could you give some sample
reason about why we need to stop
the machine, or list all of the reasons, so we can resolve it one by

From my view, especially for KVM, the creation of vcpu are protected

well by lock mechanism from other
vcpu threads in kernel, so we need not to stop all of the threads.

The chipset is the owner of this bus and instantiates it. So it also
provides a vmstate. You can drop this unneeded one here (it's created
via an obsolete API anyway).



No familiar with Qemu bus emulation, keep on learning :) . But what I
thought is,
the x86-ICC bus is not the same as bus like PCI.
For a PCI bus, it lies behind a host bridge, but ICC is shared by all x86
processors in SMP system,
so there is not a outstanding owner.  And I right?


ICC is also attached to the chipset (due to the IOAPIC). So it looks
reasonable to me to let the chipset do the lifecycle management as well.
It is the fixed point, CPUs may come and go.

The LAPIC is part of the CPU, the classic APIC was a dedicated chip.

For various reasons, a safer approach for creating a new CPU is to stop
the machine, add the new device models, run cpu_synchronize_post_init on
that new cpu (looks like you missed that) and then resume everything.

Yes, but it will be the next step.  But I introduce it because with current
code,
the hotplug creation of apic instance by apic_init() will hit the following
assert
 "qdev_create_from_info: Assertion `bus->allow_hotplug' failed."
So I want to separate apic and create ICC-bus which connects LAPICs
together.
Most of all, it can support hotplug just like we can hotplug x86 physical
CPU in real machine.

Because LAPIC is part of x86 chip, I want to move it into cpu_x86_init(),

Modeling the ICC bus looks like a step in the right direction. The
IOAPIC could be attached to it as well to get rid of "ioapics[MAX_IOAPICS]".

There is no kvm-apic upstream yet, so it's hard to judge why we need
this here. If we do, this has to be a separate patch. But I seriously
doubt we need it (my hack worked without it, and that was not because of
its hack nature).

The chipset is the owner of this bus and instantiates it. So it also
provides a vmstate. You can drop this unneeded one here (it's created
via an obsolete API anyway).

Separate apic from qbus to icc bus which supports hotplug feature.
And make the creation of apic as part of cpu initialization, so
apic's state has been ready, before setting kvm_apic.
