Of cause it's possible to create and keep at board level map of
slot-names to whatever other info needed to create a CPU object
at machine init time, and then make board somehow to apply it
to the new CPU object before realizing it.

But it doesn't give mgmt any information whatsoever about where CPU
is being hotplugged. So for x86/arm we would end up with adding
yet another interface that would tell it. If CPUSlotProperties is used
instead of slot-name, it could convey that information while
keeping interface compatible with a range targets we care about
and extendable to other targets in future.

now imagine extending in future sPAPR to support NUMA, which way would
you extend interface, how would mgmt know which CPU belongs to what node?

As you may note in CPUSlotProperties fields are optional so target would
use only ones it needs. For current sPAPR, query result could be
something like this:

{
  {
     type: spapr-cpu-core
     properties: { core: 0 }
     qom-path: /machine/unattached/device[xxx]
  }
  {
     type: spapr-cpu-core
     properties: { core: 1 }
  }
  ...
  {
     type: spapr-cpu-core
     properties: { core: 0 }
  }
}

Later if numa was needed, the board could set 'numa' property as well.
Would that work for sPAPR?

As analogy PCI devices also have 'bus' property which is used to tell
device_add machinery where to attach the device. The same goes for DIMM
device which also has 'numa' option so mgmt could say to which node device
is being plugged.

CPUSlotProperties is basically location where CPU is being plugged
and in some cases location includes 'numa' property or some other.
The difference vs slot-name is that CPUSlotProperties is more
verbose and flexible and tries to describe location in natural
for target therms.

I don't agree with switching to socket model on x86 for a number of reasons:
 - it can't be done without breaking compatibility.
 - from user pov, he/she would like to hotplug CPU at thread level to get
   necessary CPU horsepower without over-paying for over-provisioned threads.
   Limiting it to socket level would be crippling qemu based hypervisors
   in comparison to other hypervisors, which do it currently at thread level.
   Practice show that Linux and Windows handle thread level hotplug well
   enough perhaps because they try match ACPI spec where hotplug happens
   at thread level.
