Core topology

The core topology CORETOP records contain the information about the processor cores on the system. A second column of 0 indicates a column heading record. Each core has its own record with the second column that starts with 001 and increments for each core. If the topology changes, the CORETOP records will be rewritten after the new CHIPTOP records are written with the time column set to indicate the time of the change. The records contain integers for all items except the core state, which is a character value, and it has one of the following values: Not installed, Guarded off, Unlicensed, Shared, Borrowed, or Dedicated. The assigned partition is integer 65535 if the core is not assigned to a dedicated partition or if it is in the shared group.
  • CORETOP, 0, T00000, core ID, chip ID, module ID, node ID, core state, logical processor ID, processor identification register, assigned partition ID, nominal frequency in MHz, current frequency in MHz, primary affinity domain, secondary affinity domain
  • CORETOP, 1, T00001, 0, 0, 0, 0, Dedicated, 1, 0, 1, 4000, 4004, 0, 1
  • CORETOP, 2, T00001, 1, 0, 0, 0, Shared, 4, 4, 65535, 4000, 4004, 0, 1
  • CORETOP, 3, T00001, 2, 0, 0, 0, Borrowed, 8, 8, 65535, 4000, 40004, 0, 1
