I'll change it to u64 to make it future proof. It's not necessary to change it to u64 if you put a limit, but you can add a WARN_ON(size == 0). Also if kvm_apic_map_get_logical_dest() expects multiples of 16, it should warn whenever the invariant is not respected. >> Let's put a limit on the maximum supported APIC ID, and report it >> through KVM_CHECK_EXTENSION on the new KVM_CAP_X2APIC_API capability. >> If 767 is enough for Knights Landing, the allocation below fits in two >> pages.

Should it? According to QEMU if you have e.g. 3 cores per socket one socket take 4 APIC IDs. For Knights Landing the "worst" prime factor in 288 is 3^2 so you need APIC IDs up to 288 * (4/3)^2 = 512.
