What is your host CPU's topology

The code matching the comment in vl.c ("compute missing values, prefer
sockets over cores over threads") would be like "-smp
cpu=2,cores=1,threads=1,sockets=2", giving this code:
if (cpus == 0) {
sockets = sockets > 0 ? sockets : 1;
cores = cores > 0 ? cores : 1;
threads = threads > 0 ? threads : 1;
cpus = cores * threads * sockets;
} else if (sockets == 0) {
cores = cores > 0 ? cores : 1;
threads = threads > 0 ? threads : 1;
sockets = cpus / (cores * threads);
} else if (cores == 0) {
threads = threads > 0 ? threads : 1;
cores = cpus / (sockets * threads);
} else {
threads = cpus / (sockets * cores);
}
What you suggest is cores over threads over sockets:
if (cpus == 0) {
cores = cores > 0 ? cores : 1;
threads = threads > 0 ? threads : 1;
sockets = sockets > 0 ? sockets : 1;
cpus = cores * threads * sockets;
} else if (cores == 0) {
threads = threads > 0 ? threads : 1;
sockets = sockets > 0 ? sockets : 1;
cores = cpus / (threads * sockets);
} else if (threads == 0) {
sockets = sockets > 0 ? sockets : 1;
threads = cpus / (cores * sockets);
} else {
sockets = cpus / (cores * threads);
}
Can you test which of these two work? But I agree it's best to disable
cache-leaf forwarding.
