lscpu currently prints information for CPUs configured in the system.
In case of KVM or other virtualized guest operating systems, this
refers to the virtual system, and bears no relation to the physical
topology of the system.
It would be useful if lscpu could also display the physical topology
info when available:
$ ./lscpu
Architecture: ppc64le
Byte Order: Little Endian
CPU(s): 16
On-line CPU(s) list: 0-15
Thread(s) per core: 1
Core(s) per socket: 1
Socket(s): 16
NUMA node(s): 1
Model: IBM pSeries (emulated by qemu)
Hypervisor vendor: KVM
Virtualization type: para
L1d cache: 64K
L1i cache: 32K
NUMA node0 CPU(s): 0-15
Physical sockets: 2 <<< New
Physical chips: 4 <<< New
Physical cores/chip: 4 <<< New
For now, physical topology information is available on platforms that
support the following RTAS (Real time abstraction service) call provided
by librtas:
rtas_get_sysparm(PROCESSOR_MODULE_INFO).
Currently this call is available to the PowerVM (pHYP) guests on PowerPC.
With a patch propoosed to PowerKVM, this RTAS call would also be available
to PowerKVM guests.
Based on input from Nishanth Aravamudan and Karel Zak.

Changelog[v2]
[Karel Zak]. Drop the --physical option and display the info
uncondidtionally, check the SYSTEM_LIVE flag before
making rtas call; use BUFSIZ instead of hardcoding.
Update lscpu man page.

.SH DESCRIPTION
.B lscpu
-gathers CPU architecture information from sysfs and /proc/cpuinfo. The
+gathers CPU architecture information from sysfs, /proc/cpuinfo and any
+applicable architecture-specific libraries (e.g. librtas on Powerpc). The
command output can be optimized for parsing or for easy readability by humans.
The information includes, for example, the number of CPUs, threads, cores,
sockets, and Non-Uniform Memory Access (NUMA) nodes. There is also information
about the CPU caches and cache sharing, family, model, bogoMIPS, byte order,
and stepping.
+In virtualized environments, the CPU architecture information displayed
+reflects the configuration of the guest operating system which is
+typically different from the physical (host) system. On architectures that
+support retreiving physical topology information,
+.B lscpu
+also displays the number of physical sockets, chips, cores in the host system.
+
Options that result in an output table have a \fIlist\fP argument. Use this
argument to customize the command output. Specify a comma-separated list of
column labels to limit the output table to only the specified columns, arranged
