You could look at the kern.sched.topology_spec sysctl, which outputs
like this:

<groups>
 <group level="1" cache-level="0">
  <cpu count="8" mask="ff">0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7</cpu>
  <children>
   <group level="2" cache-level="2">
    <cpu count="4" mask="f">0, 1, 2, 3</cpu>
   </group>
   <group level="2" cache-level="2">
    <cpu count="4" mask="f0">4, 5, 6, 7</cpu>
   </group>
  </children>
 </group>
</groups>

Note that this output is created from the kernel's own interpretation of
the pysical CPUs, not necessarily from what the physical topology
actually is (but if there is a mismatch, it's a bug).
