|It shows double CPUs

|[EMAIL PROTECTED] root]# grep -E '(processor|physical)' /proc/cpuinfo
|processor       : 0
|physical id     : 0
|processor       : 1

|The count of physical id associated with processor tells how many core 
|it is. So in this case it is single core.
|
|[EMAIL PROTECTED] root]# grep -E  '(physical|processor)' /proc/cpuinfo
|processor       : 0
|physical id     : 0
|processor       : 1
|physical id     : 0
|processor       : 2
|physical id     : 3
|processor       : 3
|physical id     : 3

|In this case it is dual core with each CPU. Physically there are only 
|2CPUs and showing 4.
|
|My question is:
|If we can see double CPUs in both the case of HT & dual core, how do we 
|differentiate whether it is due to HT or dual core nature of CPU.

If CPU is HT capable it will appear as "ht" in "flags" field
"/proc/cpuinfo" .
