+[Bug] "-ht" flag ignored under KVM - guest still reports HT
+
+Hi Community,
+We have observed that the 'ht' feature bit cannot be disabled when QEMU runs
+with KVM acceleration.
+qemu-system-x86_64 \
+  --enable-kvm \
+  -machine q35 \
+  -cpu host,-ht \
+  -smp 4 \
+  -m 4G \
+  -drive file=rootfs.img,format=raw \
+  -nographic \
+  -append 'console=ttyS0 root=/dev/sda rw'
+Because '-ht' is specified, the guest should expose no HT capability
+(cpuid.1.edx[28] = 0), and /proc/cpuinfo shouldn't show HT feature, but we still
+saw ht in linux guest when run 'cat /proc/cpuinfo'.
+XiaoYao mentioned that:
+
+It has been the behavior of QEMU since
+
+  commit 400281af34e5ee6aa9f5496b53d8f82c6fef9319

+
+    set CPUID bits to present cores and threads topology
+
+that we cannot remove HT CPUID bit from guest via "-cpu xxx,-ht" if the
+VM has >= 2 vcpus.
+I'd like to know whether there's a plan to address this issue, or if the current
+behaviour is considered acceptable.
+Best regards,
+Ewan.
