Commit Message

wangyanan (Y) July 19, 2021, 3:20 a.m. UTC 
Add a QEMU unit test for the parsing of given SMP configuration.
Since all the parsing logic is in generic function smp_parse(),
this test passes diffenent SMP configurations to the function
and compare the parsing result with what is expected.

In the test, all possible collections of the topology parameters
and the corressponding expected results are listed, including the
valid and invalid ones.

The preference of sockets over cores and the preference of cores
over sockets, and the support of multi-dies are also considered.

Long way to say 'valid'.

SMPConfiguration and CpuTopology have named fields so we could drop the
'expect: ...' comment line and instead do

 {
  /* no configuration provided */ 
  .config = { .has_cpus = F, .has_maxcpus = F, ... },
  .valid = T,
  .expect = { .sockets = 1, .cores = 1, ... },
 }, {
  ...
 }

which may be easier to maintain. OTOH, the concise form this approach has
is also nice. I don't think you should need the casts in the assignments
though.

I tried the structure initialization with explicit name fields in it 
like above,
actually we are supposed to do in this way so that we don't have to worry
about the order change of the structure members.

But this would break the 80-char line limit or introduce more lines for
for each SMP configuration. If this is not a real problem, I also prefer
above format.

Yes, the casts may be unnecessary, will remove them.

I wouldn't worry about 80-char (or even 90, which is when checkpatch
