This patch will prevent guest to start when the maximum
vcpus are greater than cpu topology limit. Currently similar
checks do exist only during setvcpus. The patch adds the
missing check. The c9cb35c255222 reverted similar check to
avoid older configs from vanishing. The current patch adds
it in domain validation part to be consistent with the
original intent.

This exact logic is done in qemuDomainDefValidate:

See commit 043ba4a40a4ae26cf616146d0d1c129d65b156b8. The only difference
is that the code is validated only for certain versions of qemu known to
reject such configuration.
Is that not enough?
<vcpu placement='static'>64</vcpu>
<cpu>
<topology sockets='1' cores='4' threads='8'/>
</cpu>
# virsh start one-0
error: Failed to start domain one-0
error: internal error: process exited while connecting to monitor:
2017-02-08T06:41:59.615692Z qemu-system-ppc64: cpu topology: sockets (1)
* cores (4) * threads (8) < smp_cpus (64)
I have qemu version 2.5.0 which doesn't have cpu hotplug capability
hence I get this error. Any ways we can improve and error out using libvirt?
I tried with qemu-2.4.1 and still see the error, from this I can say smp
topology check is maintained by qemu even before cpu hotplug feature is
added.
When we had vcpu count validation in XML parser, domains with above
mentioned config were rejected irrespective of qemu capabilities.
Thanks,
Madhu.
