The hotplug case is a bit more complex: we need to either: - have a mechanism to let the ACPI SSDT code know what's the APIC ID of hotplugged CPUs; or - make Seabios run some code in the hotplugged CPU (I am assuming that this is simply not possible).
If SMM is supported by qemu/kvm than it will be possible to trigger SMI from APCI method and SMI handler, that are supposed to run on all CPUs (including hot-plugged one) , could fixup APIC ID of added CPU in some memory region used by ACPI. -- ----- Igor
