Change subject: Change source of CPU sockets/cores to libvirt capabilities

Patch Set 17: I would prefer that you didn't submit this

(3 inline comments)

Ademar, thanks. I now understand that libvirt does not provide us with the 
complete topology information, only the number of threads per cell.

I think we should take what we have (exact number of threads), do the heuristic 
for what we don't, and make these fact explicit in the commit message.

File tests/capsTests.py
Line 54: 
Line 55:     def testCpuTopology(self):
Line 56:         testPath = os.path.realpath(__file__)
Line 57:         dirName = os.path.split(testPath)[0]
Line 58:         path = os.path.join(dirName, "caps_libvirt.out")
it could have been nicer if caps_libvirt.out and cpu_info.out have reflected 
the same host. or better: have a set of host, each one with its 
caps_libvirt.out and cpu_info.out.

This can wait for a later patch.
Line 59:         t = caps.CpuTopology(path)
Line 60:         self.assertEqual(t.cores(), 12)
Line 61:         self.assertEqual(t.sockets(), 2)
Line 62:

Line 88:         self._topology = _getCpuTopology(capabilities)
Line 89: 
Line 90:     def threads(self):
Line 91:         return (self._topology['cells'] *
Line 92:                 self._topology['sockets'] *
I think that you'd be better off summing up how many cpus appear under <cells>. 
This would accommodate "funky" numa topologies. What is your opinion?

Too bad that for cores and socket, we would have to assume symmetry between 
numa nodes.
Line 93:                 self._topology['cores'] *
Line 94:                 self._topology['threads'])
Line 95: 
Line 96:     def cores(self):


Line 91:         return (self._topology['cells'] *
Line 92:                 self._topology['sockets'] *
Line 93:                 self._topology['cores'] *
Line 94:                 self._topology['threads'])
Line 95: 
Please add a little comment like:

 # this assumes that all numa nodes have the same number of sockets,
 # and that all socket have the same number of cores.

and explain this limitation in the commit message.
Line 96:     def cores(self):
Line 97:         return (self._topology['cells'] *
Line 98:                 self._topology['sockets'] *
Line 99:                 self._topology['cores'])
