Hello,
Your BIOS reports invalid L3 cache information. On these processors, the
L3 is shared by 6 cores, it covers 6 cores of an entire half-socket NUMA
node. But the BIOS says that some L3 are shared between 4 cores, others
by 6 cores. And worse it says that some L3 is shared by some cores from
a NUMA node and others from another NUMA nodes, which causes the error
message (and these L3 cannot be inserted in the topology).
I see "AMD Eng Sample, ZS268145TCG54_32/26/20_2/16" in the processor
type, so it might explain why your BIOS is somehow experimental. See if
you can upgrade it.
Also make sure your kernel isn't too old in case it misses L3 info for
these processors. At least 3.3 should be OK iirc.
