From the man page:

-smp n[,cores=cores][,threads=threads][,sockets=sockets][,maxcpus=maxcpus]
    Simulate an SMP system with n CPUs. On the PC target, up to 255
    CPUs are supported. On Sparc32 target, Linux limits the number of
    usable CPUs to 4. For the PC target, the number of cores per
    socket, the number of threads per cores and the total number of
    sockets can be specified. Missing values will be computed. If any
    on the three values is given, the total number of CPUs n can be
    omitted. maxcpus specifies the maximum number of hotpluggable
    CPUs.

Basically, you want something like -smp 8,cores=8
