  27 * CPU Cluster type
  28 *
  29 * A cluster is a group of CPUs which are all identical and have the same view
  30 * of the rest of the system. It is mainly an internal QEMU representation and
  31 * does not necessarily match with the notion of clusters on the real hardware.
  32 *
  33 * If CPUs are not identical (for example, Cortex-A53 and Cortex-A57 CPUs in an
  34 * Arm big.LITTLE system) they should be in different clusters. If the CPUs do
  35 * not have the same view of memory (for example the main CPU and a management
  36 * controller processor) they should be in different clusters.
  37 *
  38 * A cluster is created by creating an object of TYPE_CPU_CLUSTER, and then
  39 * adding the CPUs to it as QOM child objects (e.g. using the
  40 * object_initialize_child() or object_property_add_child() functions).
  41 * The CPUs may be either direct children of the cluster object, or indirect
  42 * children (e.g. children of children of the cluster object).
  43 *
  44 * All CPUs must be added as children before the cluster is realized.
  45 * (Regrettably QOM provides no way to prevent adding children to a realized
  46 * object and no way for the parent to be notified when a new child is added
  47 * to it, so this restriction is not checked for, but the system will not
  48 * behave correctly if it is not adhered to. The cluster will assert that
  49 * it contains at least one CPU, which should catch most inadvertent
  50 * violations of this constraint.)
  51 *
  52 * A CPU which is not put into any cluster will be considered implicitly
  53 * to be in a cluster with all the other "loose" CPUs, so all CPUs that are
  54 * not assigned to clusters must be identical.
