[PATCH 1/1] kvm: increase max vcpu count

From: Li, Zhen-Hua
Date: Thu May 15 2014 - 05:51:19 EST


This patch is trying to increase the maximum supported vcpu number.

There has been big system supporting more than 256 logical CPUs, and vmware
can also support guest system with more than logical 256 CPUs. So kvm should
also increase the maximum supported cpu number.

This patch only includes kernel kvm's part. The qemu support will be another
thread.
