While doing more testing today, I noticed that only one vCPU would be
brought up with HVM guest with Xen 4.16 on my setup (QEMU):

I have tried a PV guest (same setup) and the kernel could bring up all the
vCPUs.

Digging down, Linux will set smp_num_siblings to 0 (via detect_ht_early())
and as a result will skip all the CPUs. The value is retrieve from a CPUID
leaf. So it sounds like we don't set the leaft correctly.

FWIW, I have also tried on Xen 4.11 and could spot the same issue. Does this
ring any bell to you?

Is it maybe this:
https://lore.kernel.org/xen-devel/20201106003529.391649-1-bmasney@xxxxxxxxxx/T/#u
?

It looks to be different as I don't see the splat.

Anyway, Jan just posted a patch that allows a Linux HVM domain to brings up all the vCPUs.
