Hello

You sent the test.output file instead of test.tar.bz2 so I can't check
for sure. Anyway I guess this is yet another buggy AMD platform with
magny-cours/interlagos/abu-dahbi Opterons (61xx, 62xx or 63xx).

Sometimes upgrading the BIOS/kernel helps. Sometimes not.

Some L3 caches will be missing in the hwloc topology because of this
bug, it's likely not important for the vast majority of HPC libraries.

You may hide the warning by setting HWLOC_HIDE_ERRORS=1 in your environment.

Brice
