 Sorry about this, the complexity of qemu and its capability to
 support/emulate such wide range of targets is slowly sinking in :)
 
 smp_cpus is defined in vl.c which doesn't even get compiled for
 targets like i386-linux-user and hence we end up in above undefined
 reference error.
 
 I wouldn't attempt another fix until I spend some time understanding
 the code organization for various targets. Meanwhile since the root
 cause of the probem and the solution are known, if anyone more well
 versed with qemu code organization can fix this, please go ahead.

Just assign cpuid_apic_id unconditionally in cpu_x86_init. Will have no
side effects.

apic id returned to guest kernel in ebx for cpuid(function=1) depends on
CPUX86State-cpuid_apic_id which gets populated after the cpuid information
is cached in the host kernel. This results in broken CPU topology in guest.

Fix this by setting cpuid_apic_id before cpuid information is passed to
the host kernel. This is done by moving the setting of cpuid_apic_id
to cpu_x86_init() where it will work for both KVM as well as TCG modes.

This is the next post of the fix that addresses Jan's comment about
bringing back (smp_cpus  1) check.

The previous version was posted here:
http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/qemu-devel/2011-09/msg00892.html

I coudn't boot a 486 kernel successfully with qemu and hence not
sure if and how this fix breaks i486. Any help from Jan or others
who might have easy means to boot 486 would be good.

At least it preserves the current logic, just moves it up in the
initialization path.

Just in time, we happen to hit this bug today too. It confused libvirt
in the guest quite a bit...
