glibc tries to evaluate that in the following order:

  1) /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu*

     That's present CPUs not possible CPUs

  2) /proc/stat

     That's online CPUs

  3) sched_getaffinity()

     That's online CPUs at best. In the worst case it's an affinity mask
     which is set on a process group

Thanks,
