For an architecture to support this feature, it must define some of these macros in include/asm-XXX/topology.h: |

#define topology_physical_package_id(cpu) #define topology_core_id(cpu) #define topology_thread_siblings(cpu) #define topology_core_siblings(cpu) The type of **_id is int. The type of siblings is cpumask_t. |

To be consistent on all architectures, include/linux/topology.h provides default definitions for any of the above macros that are not defined by include/asm-XXX/topology.h: 1) physical_package_id: -1 2) core_id: 0 3) thread_siblings: just the given CPU 4) core_siblings: just the given CPU |
