Subject: [PATCH] KVM: x86: Do not return host topology information from
 KVM_GET_SUPPORTED_CPUID

Passing the host topology to the guest is almost certainly wrong
and will confuse the scheduler.  In addition, several fields of
these CPUID leaves vary on each processor; it is simply impossible to
return the right values from KVM_GET_SUPPORTED_CPUID in such a way that
they can be passed to KVM_SET_CPUID2.

The values that will most likely prevent confusion are all zeroes.
Userspace will have to override it anyway if it wishes to present a
specific topology to the guest.

+CPU topology
+~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+Several CPUID values include topology information for the host CPU:
+0x0b and 0x1f for Intel systems, 0x8000001e for AMD systems.  Different
+versions of KVM return different values for this information and userspace
+should not rely on it.  Currently they return all zeroes.
+
+If userspace wishes to set up a guest topology, it should be careful that
+the values of these three leaves differ for each CPU.  In particular,
+the APIC ID is found in EDX for all subleaves of 0x0b and 0x1f, and in EAX
+for 0x8000001e; the latter also encodes the core id and node id in bits
+7:0 of EBX and ECX respectively.
