通过virt-install 创建虚拟机时qemu对vcpu和ram的限制

通过virt-install 命令创建虚拟机的时候会调用到qemu/hw/arm/virt.c 中的machvirt_machine_init
static const TypeInfo virt_machine_info = {
    .name          = TYPE_VIRT_MACHINE,
    .parent        = TYPE_MACHINE,
    .abstract      = true,
    .instance_size = sizeof(VirtMachineState),
    .class_size    = sizeof(VirtMachineClass),
    .class_init    = virt_machine_class_init,
};

static void machvirt_machine_init(void)
{
    type_register_static(&virt_machine_info);
}
这里我们重点看virt_machine_class_init->machvirt_init
static void machvirt_init(MachineState *machine)
{

//下面这段code中会对要创建虚拟机的vcpu的个数和ram的size检查
    if (gic_version == 3) {
        virt_max_cpus = vbi->memmap[VIRT_GIC_REDIST].size / 0x20000;
        clustersz = GICV3_TARGETLIST_BITS;
    } else {
        virt_max_cpus = GIC_NCPU;
        clustersz = GIC_TARGETLIST_BITS;
    }

    if (max_cpus > virt_max_cpus) {
        error_report("Number of SMP CPUs requested (%d) exceeds max CPUs "
                     "supported by machine 'mach-virt' (%d)",
                     max_cpus, virt_max_cpus);
        exit(1);
    }

    vbi->smp_cpus = smp_cpus;

    if (machine->ram_size > vbi->memmap[VIRT_MEM].size) {
        error_report("mach-virt: cannot model more than %dGB RAM", RAMLIMIT_GB);
        exit(1);
    }

 }
这里加入gic_version 不等于3的话，则vcpu的个数不能超过virt_max_cpus = GIC_NCPU;。这里的#define GIC_NCPU 8
从下面这个秒钟可以看到memory最大不能超过RAMLIMIT_BYTES，也就是256GB
#define RAMLIMIT_GB 255
#define RAMLIMIT_BYTES (RAMLIMIT_GB * 1024ULL * 1024 * 1024)

static const MemMapEntry a15memmap[] = {
    [VIRT_MEM] =                { 0x40000000, RAMLIMIT_BYTES },
    /* Second PCIe window, 512GB wide at the 512GB boundary */
    [VIRT_PCIE_MMIO_HIGH] =   { 0x8000000000ULL, 0x8000000000ULL },
};
