Subject: [PATCH 1/1] cpus: resume hotplugged vCPU only when the guest is running
Date: Fri, 10 Oct 2025 14:36:39 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20251010213639.1634-1-dongli.zhang@oracle.com> (raw)
When a new vCPU is hotplugged, cpu->stopped is unconditionally set to false
by cpu_common_realizefn().
However, there are scenarios where the guest is not running, i.e., when the
guest has been stopped via the HMP 'stop' command, or when the instance is
a live migration target started with "-incoming defer". In these cases, all
existing vCPUs have (cpu->stopped == true), except for the newly hotplugged
vCPU.
Unpause the hotplugged vCPU only when the guest is running.
