The only difference is the bitmap. -vcpu_avail is giving to QEMU a bitmap of the running CPUs. But I don't know if it useful to have a bitmap, or if a number is enough. With QEMU upstream, we could actually pass the bitmap through several QMP command "cpu-add CPUx", if a number is not enough. -- Anthony PERARD _______________________________________________ Xen-devel mailing list Xen-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.xen.org/xen-devel
