+Description: CPU topology files that describe a logical CPU's relationship
+ to other cores and threads in the same physical package.
+
+ One cpu# directory is created per logical CPU in the system,
+ e.g. /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu42/.
+
+ Briefly, the files above are:
+
+ core_id: the CPU core ID of cpu#. Typically it is the
+ hardware platform's identifier (rather than the kernel's).
+ The actual value is architecture and platform dependent.
+
+ core_siblings: internal kernel map of cpu#'s hardware threads
+ within the same physical_package_id.
+
+ core_siblings_list: human-readable list of the logical CPU
+ numbers within the same physical_package_id as cpu#.
+
+ physical_package_id: physical package id of cpu#. Typically
+ corresponds to a physical socket number, but the actual value
+ is architecture and platform dependent.
+
+ thread_siblings: internel kernel map of cpu#'s hardware
+ threads within the same core as cpu#
+
+ thread_siblings_list: human-readable list of cpu#'s hardware
+ threads within the same core as cpu#
+
+ See Documentation/cputopology.txt for more information.
