Hi,
The following two patches enable core-pair topology detection for AMD
CPUs. The main idea is to record compute unit information into
cpuinfo_x86 and use it when building sibling map. The sibling map will
be used by Xen credit scheduler to coordinate VCPU scheduling in a
fashion similar to SMT. This code is very similar to upstream Linux kernel.
Regarding the performance improvement, I saw ~8% improvement running
kernel compilation on Dom0 with this patch. Anrea Przywara ran a POVRay
benchmark using this patch and he saw ~5% improvement. No perf
degradation was seen so far.
Please review.
Apart from some indentation issues these look fine to me.
