    formatdomain.html.in: document emulator/vcpu pin delay · f68601dd
    Daniel Henrique Barboza 提交于
    In a guest with only one vcpu, when pinning the emulator in say CPU184
    and the vcpu0 in CPU0 of the host, the user might expect that only
    CPU0 and CPU184 of the host will be used by the guest.
    
    The reality is that Libvirt takes some time to honor the emulator
    and vcpu pinning, taking care of NUMA constraints first. This will
    result in other CPUs of the host being potentially used by the
    QEMU thread until the emulator/vcpu pinning is done. The user
    then might be confused by the output of 'virsh cpu-stats' in this
    scenario, showing around 200 microseconds of cycles being spent
    in other CPUs.
    
    Let's document this behavior, which is explained in detail in
    Libvirt commit v5.0.0-199-gf136b831, in the cputune section
    of formatdomain.html.in.
