Incorrect cache-info output with nosmt linux kernel command line

Hello,

I'm using the main branch of today (https://github.com/pytorch/cpuinfo/commit/3c8b1533ac03dd6531ab6e7b9245d488f13a82a5) and I've got incorrect output in cache-info on a machine booted with the "nosmt" kernel command line parameter:

WITH the "nosmt" parameter (note the weird "shared by XX processors" at the end of each line):

[NOSMT]$ ./cache-info 
Max cache size (upper bound): 16777216 bytes
L1 instruction cache: 96 x 32 KB, 8-way set associative (64 sets), 64 byte lines, shared by 97 processors
L1 data cache: 96 x 32 KB, 8-way set associative (64 sets), 64 byte lines, shared by 97 processors
L2 unified cache: 96 x 512 KB (inclusive), 8-way set associative (1024 sets), 64 byte lines, shared by 97 processors
L3 unified cache: 24 x 16 MB (exclusive), 16-way set associative (16384 sets), 64 byte lines, shared by 100 processors

WITHOUT the "nosmt" parameter:

[SMT]$ ./cache-info 
Max cache size (upper bound): 16777216 bytes
L1 instruction cache: 96 x 32 KB, 8-way set associative (64 sets), 64 byte lines, shared by 2 processors

The difference is are on the On-line/Off-line CPU(s) lists.

It caught me by surprise with a SIGFPE when using the NNPACK project (https://github.com/Maratyszcza/NNPACK/issues/218).

Thank you for your help.

Start by reproducing ./cache-info on the reported AMD EPYC system with and without the nosmt kernel parameter, then compare its shared-processor counts with the lscpu online and offline CPU lists. Trace the CPU topology and cache reporting paths; done means nosmt reports correct sharing counts and no longer causes the SIGFPE seen by NNPACK.
