Hi,

I just got access to one POWER7 box. Both hwloc 1.0.2 and latest hwloc 1.1 
seem to have problems to detect the sockets correctly.

It's IBM 8406-71Y server equipped with only one socket. On the chip there are 
8 cores. lstopo seems to be wrong here, reporting 8 sockets.

I'm not sure if this problem arose in linux kernel or it's bug in lstopo code. 
Does anybody else tried to run hwloc on POWER7?

Thanks
Jirka
