[PATCH 02/14] hw/core/machine-smp: Deprecate unsupported "parameter=1" SMP configurations

From: Zhao Liu <zhao1.liu@intel.com> Currentlt, it was allowed for users to specify the unsupported topology parameter as "1". For example, x86 PC machine doesn't support drawer/book/cluster topology levels, but user could specify "-smp drawers=1,books=1,clusters=1". This is meaningless and confusing, so that the support for this kind of configurations is marked depresated since 9.0. And report warning message for such case like: qemu-system-x86_64: warning: Deprecated CPU topology (considered invalid): Unsupported clusters parameter mustn't be specified as 1 qemu-system-x86_64: warning: Deprecated CPU topology (considered invalid): Unsupported books parameter mustn't be specified as 1 qemu-system-x86_64: warning: Deprecated CPU topology (considered invalid): Unsupported drawers parameter mustn't be specified as 1 Users have to ensure that all the topology members described with -smp are supported by the target machine.

Apart from the typos, patch looks fine. I recommend to run "checkpath.pl" with the --codespell parameter, that helps to avoid those. Thomas

Oops...I didn't realize there were so many typos. Maybe I'm relying too much on --codespell ;-), and these typos aren't in the default dictionary used by --codespell so I didn't check them before. I'll refresh a new version (at Friday) for these typos. Thanks, Zhao
