Some software algorithms are based on the hardware's cache info, for example,
for x86 linux kernel, when cpu1 want to wakeup a task on cpu2, cpu1 will trigger
a resched IPI and told cpu2 to do the wakeup if they don't share low level
cache. Oppositely, cpu1 will access cpu2's runqueue directly if they share llc.
The relevant linux-kernel code as bellow:
static void ttwu_queue(struct task_struct *p, int cpu)
{
struct rq *rq = cpu_rq(cpu);
......
if (... && !cpus_share_cache(smp_processor_id(), cpu)) {
......
ttwu_queue_remote(p, cpu); /* will trigger RES IPI */
return;
}
......
ttwu_do_activate(rq, p, 0); /* access target's rq directly */
......
}
In real hardware, the cpus on the same socket share L3 cache, so one won't
trigger a resched IPIs when wakeup a task on others. But QEMU doesn't present a
virtual L3 cache info for VM, then the linux guest will trigger lots of RES IPIs
under some workloads even if the virtual cpus belongs to the same virtual socket.
For KVM, there will be lots of vmexit due to guest send IPIs.
The workload is a SAP HANA's testsuite, we run it one round(about 40 minuates)
and observe the (Suse11sp3)Guest's amounts of RES IPIs which triggering during
the period:

avg: 268963.6 40129.8
The VM's topology is "1*socket 8*cores 2*threads".
After present virtual L3 cache info for VM, the amounts of RES IPIs in guest
reduce 85%.
For KVM, vcpus send IPIs will cause vmexit which is expensive, so it can cause
severe performance degradation. We had tested the overall system performance if
vcpus actually run on sparate physical socket. With L3 cache, the performance
improves 7.2%~33.1%(avg:15.7%).

Add the host-phys-bits boolean property, if true, take phys-bits
from the hosts physical bits value, overriding either the default
or the user specified value.
We can also use the value we read from the host to check the users
explicitly set value and warn them if it doesn't match.
Note:
a) We only read the hosts value in KVM mode (because on non-x86
we get an abort if we try)
b) We don't warn about trying to use host-phys-bits in TCG mode,
we just fall back to the TCG default. This allows the machine
type to set the host-phys-bits flag if it wants and then to

Currently QEMU sets the x86 number of physical address bits to the
magic number 40. This is only correct on some small AMD systems;
Intel systems tend to have 36, 39, 46 bits, and large AMD systems
tend to have 48.
Having the value different from your actual hardware is detectable
by the guest and in principal can cause problems;
The current limit of 40 stops TB VMs being created by those lucky
enough to have that much.
This patch lets you set the physical bits by a cpu property but
defaults to the same 40bits which matches TCGs setup.
I've removed the ancient warning about the 42 bit limit in exec.c;
I can't find that limit in there and no one else seems to know where
it is.
We use a magic value of 0 as the property default so that we can
later distinguish between the default and a user set value.

Currently CPUClass->parse_features() is used to parse -cpu
features string and set properties on created CPU instances.
But considering that features specified by -cpu apply to every
created CPU instance, it doesn't make sense to parse the same
features string for every CPU created. It also makes every target
that cares about parsing features string explicitly call
CPUClass->parse_features() parser, which gets in a way if we
consider using generic device_add for CPU hotplug as device_add
has not a clue about CPU specific hooks.
Turns out we can use global properties mechanism to set
properties on every created CPU instance for a given type. That
way it's possible to convert CPU features into a set of global
properties for CPU type specified by -cpu cpu_model and common
Device.device_post_init() will apply them to CPU of given type
automatically regardless whether it's manually created CPU or CPU
created with help of device_add.
