Hello,
I just pushed some changes to the new "x86-common" branch in hwloc's git.
You should be able to use it from the Xen component with:
hwloc_x86_discovery(topology, nbprocs /* total number of PUs */,
HWLOC_X86_DISC_FLAG_CPUINFO|HWLOC_X86_DISC_FLAG_CACHES, func, data);
func must be something like:
static int hwloc_x86_xen_cpuid(void *data, unsigned pu,
unsigned *eax, unsigned *ebx, unsigned *ecx,
unsigned *edx)
{
/* PU is the physical PU number */
}
data will likely be the Xen handle.
