I just noticed virt_machine_class_init still clamps the max_cpus to 255.
This is checked in vl.c
Do we want the 3.0 machine expose more than 255 vcpus, 512 for instance?
I understand this mc->max_cpus is something rather static, that is
refined afterwards.
Note the comment in virt_machine_class_init suggest 255 is the max QEMU
supports but I can see that pc_q35.c sets the max_cpus to 288 already.
Thanks
