Description
I was able to compile pytorch on Debian 10, with Sparc processor. However, when it runs, it gives the error that it does not recognize the cpuinfo information and uses only one processor of the 32 existing ones. I would like to know if I can modify something to take at least one 16 core socket. On several occasions I was able to modify the code so that it takes the correct information. Thanks in advance.

Research direction
Start by reproducing the CPU information failure on Debian 10 with a SPARC processor and inspect the library's architecture-detection entry points. Determine how the 32 processors are reported and define completion as correct recognition of the available cores, with a test covering the SPARC case.
