If those values are in hex, you have these apic id ranges: 0x00-0x07, 0x10-0x17 0x20-0x27, 0x30-0x37 0x40-0x47, 0x50-0x57 ... So it's most likely that each of the physical processors has eight logical processors (represented by the least significant three bits) and there are two physical processors (the more significant four bits) per node. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-acpi" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
