Sometimes, you need to know the hardware layout for interrupt handling assignment, memory access, etc.
You can use dmidecode along cat /proc/XXX commands for find out the hardware layout.
http://www.thegeekstuff.com/2008/11/how-to-get-hardware-information-on-linux-using-dmidecode-command/ give a good descriptions about demidecode:
"dmidecode command reads the system DMI table to display hardware and BIOS information of the server. Apart from getting current configuration of the system, you can also get information about maximum supported configuration of the system using dmidecode. For example, dmidecode gives both the current RAM on the system and the maximum RAM supported by the system."
Here I will show an example how to decide the cpu threads and the layout:
