Add socket as a separate member so that it doesn't have to be packed into the int value. When the socket ID was larger than 8 bits the output appeared corrupted or incomplete. For example, here on ThunderX2 'perf stat' reports a socket of -1 and an invalid die number: ./perf stat -a --per-die The socket id number is too big. Performance counter stats for 'system wide': S-1-D255 128 687.99 msec cpu-clock # 57.240 CPUs utilized ... S36-D0 128 842.34 msec cpu-clock # 70.081 CPUs utilized ... And with --per-core there is an entry with an invalid core ID: ./perf stat record -a --per-core The socket id number is too big. Performance counter stats for 'system wide': S-1-D255-C65535 128 671.04 msec cpu-clock # 54.112 CPUs utilized ... S36-D0-C0 4 28.27 msec cpu-clock # 2.279 CPUs utilized ... This fixes the "Session topology" self test on ThunderX2. After this fix the output contains the correct socket and die IDs and no longer prints a warning about the size of the socket ID: ./perf stat --per-die -a Performance counter stats for 'system wide': S36-D0 128 169,869.39 msec cpu-clock # 127.501 CPUs utilized ...

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
