Summary: SMP 8-way guests fail to boot

Initial Comment:
Tried the recently added 8-way SMP on KVM-AMD. (Dual-CPU , Quad-Core AMD Barcelona K10)

Guests fail to boot.

Guests:
- Windows Server 2003 (32-bit)
- Windows Server 2008 (64-bit)
- Fedora 8 (64-bit)

Windows experience BSODs, while Linux just stucks during "init" phase.

While SMP 2 and 4-way are also were sometimes hanging, this one (8-way SMP hang) is consistent.

I have tried only KVM-AMD, because I don't have (yet) such an Intel machine.

I tried to reproduce this on an 8-way AMD box with Barcelona B3 silicon. I
was not able to reproduce the boot problems with Windows Server 2008 64
bit. Can you give more details like the qemu command line and the kvm
version you have used?

Alexey,

Can you please provide more details on the problem? 

- kvm_stat --once output once the guest is hung
- is the qemu process consuming excessive CPU time on the host?
- on the Linux case, is it a hard hang or can you still see the 
guest accepting keyboard input?
