The topology information are attributes of the CPU and are

On hot plug we:
- calculate the default values for the topology for drawers,
books and sockets in the case they are not specified.
- verify the CPU attributes
- check that we have still room on the desired socket
The possibility to insert a CPU in a mask is dependent on the
number of cores allowed in a socket, a book or a drawer, the
checking is done during the hot plug of the CPU to have an
immediate answer.
If the complete topology is not specified, the core is added
in the physical topology based on its core ID and it gets
defaults values for the modifier attributes.
This way, starting QEMU without specifying the topology can
still get some advantage of the CPU topology.

Since you later introduce a file with almost the same name in the
target/s390x/ folder, it would be fine to have some more explanation here
what this file is all about (especially with regards to the other file in
target/s390x/).
I first did put the interceptions in target/s390/ then moved them in
target/s390x/kvm because it is KVM related then again only let STSI
interception.
But to be honest I do not see any reason why not put everything in hw/s390x/
if CPU topology is implemented for TCG I think the code will call
insert_stsi_15_1_x() too.
no?
Oh well, it's all so borderline ... whether you rather think of this as part
of the CPU (like the STSI instruction) or rather part of the machine
(drawers, books, ...).
I don't mind too much, as long as we don't have two files around with almost
the same name (apart from "_" vs. "-"). So either keep the stsi part in
target/s390x and use a better file name for that, or put everything together
in one "cpu-topology.c" file.
Or what do others think about it?
