package_id is to match cores that are part of the same chip. On
PowerNV machines, package_id defaults to chip_id. However ibm,chip_id
property is not present in device-tree of PowerVM LPARs. Hence lscpu
output shows one core per socket and multiple cores.
To overcome this, use nid as the package_id on PowerVM LPARs.
Before the patch:
Architecture: ppc64le
Byte Order: Little Endian
CPU(s): 128
On-line CPU(s) list: 0-127
Thread(s) per core: 8
Core(s) per socket: 1 <----------------------
Socket(s): 16 <----------------------
NUMA node(s): 2
Model: 2.2 (pvr 004e 0202)
Model name: POWER9 (architected), altivec supported
Hypervisor vendor: pHyp
Virtualization type: para
L1d cache: 32K
L1i cache: 32K
L2 cache: 512K
L3 cache: 10240K
NUMA node0 CPU(s): 0-63
NUMA node1 CPU(s): 64-127

Now lscpu output is more in line with the system configuration.
