Thanks for the quick reply! I'm assuming it's the same plane - I hope that's what a same flight number implies in China, and not how it is in the USA (where two segments can have the same flight number, but there's a plane change involved!).

So I take it I clear passport control in KMG; board my KMG-PVG flight (which is treated as a domestic flight); and clear passport control again in PVG.

Thanks once again!
