Description

The statistics facility in bhyve currently stores counts of IPIs sent per-vcpu in a VM_MAXCPUs-sized array. While this matrix of who-sent-who-IPIs is detailed, those running counts over the lifetime of the VM seem questionable when compared to the complexity it introduces with respect to making the max vCPU count for a VM more dynamic. It should be fine to simplify this to a count of IPIs send/received per vCPU.

Prior to the change, querying statistics with bhyvectl would show VM_MAXCPU count of IPI statistics per-vcpu:

ipis sent to vcpu[0]                            0
ipis sent to vcpu[1]                            0
ipis sent to vcpu[2]                            0

With the patch, the summarized stats are available:

ipis sent from vcpu                             3810
ipis received by vcpu                           7735
