We report a topology change to the guest for any CPU hotplug. The reporting to the guest is done using the Multiprocessor Topology-Change-Report (MTCR) bit of the utility entry in the guest's SCA which will be cleared during the interpretation of PTF. On every vCPU creation we set the MCTR bit to let the guest know the next time it uses the PTF with command 2 instruction that the topology changed and that it should use the STSI(15.1.x) instruction to get the topology details. STSI(15.1.x) gives information on the CPU configuration topology. Let's accept the interception of STSI with the function code 15 and let the userland part of the hypervisor handle it when userland supports the CPU Topology facility.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
