Subject: [PATCH pve-storage 2/2] esxi: guard against zero 'cpuid.coresPerSocket'
Date: Tue, 22 Sep 2026 14:33:25 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260922123325.498271-3-n.frey@proxmox.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260922123325.498271-1-n.frey@proxmox.com>

ESXi sets 'cpuid.coresPerSocket' to 0 when the CPU topology is set to
'Assigned at power on'. cpu_info() divided by it unconditionally, so
such a VM aborted the import with "Illegal division by zero".

Fall back to one core per socket, matching the default already used
for a missing key, and log a warning so the resulting topology can be
checked.

Signed-off-by: Nicolas Frey <n.frey@proxmox.com>

Notes:
    The warning could also be emitted in case 'cpuid.coresPerSocket' is not
    present at all (right above)
