Sorry, I'm probably lumping more than I should under the name "cpuid".

Are you using an algorithm like the one recommended by Intel for your x86 
backend?

Thanks :)

Cpuids do not have any relation with NUMA nodes.  Thanks for the sample,
it is a hint that maybe we'll have to permit users & applications
to be quite precise about which backend should detect what (e.g.
here, blacklist linux' core topology information, but use its numa
information, and use the core and cache topology information from the
x86 backend).
