Subject: AMD Ryzen 7 PRO 7735U: 8 instead of 16 CPUs?
Date: Wed, 09 Apr 2025 12:49:14 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <ghlds9lidx.fsf@gouders.net> (raw)

I got new hardware and after setting up everything, I was wondering why
I don't see the expected 16 CPUs in top(1) or /proc/cpuinfo...

From the AMD website [1] I read:
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Name                    AMD Ryzen™ 7 PRO 7735U
...
Architecture            Zen 3+
# of CPU Cores          8
...
# of Threads            16
------------------------------------------------------------------------

But lscpu(1) shows me:
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Architecture:             x86_64
  CPU op-mode(s):         32-bit, 64-bit
  Address sizes:          48 bits physical, 48 bits virtual
  Byte Order:             Little Endian
CPU(s):                   8
  On-line CPU(s) list:    0-7
Vendor ID:                AuthenticAMD
  Model name:             AMD Ryzen 7 Pro 7735U with Radeon Graphics
    CPU family:           25
    Model:                68
    Thread(s) per core:   2
    Core(s) per socket:   4
    Socket(s):            1

------------------------------------------------------------------------

Then, I booted a BSD livesystem (NomadBSD), looked at dmesg(1):
------------------------------------------------------------------------
# dmesg | grep SMP
FreeBSD/SMP: Multiprocessor System Detected: 16 CPUs
FreeBSD/SMP: 1 package(s) x 8 core(s) x 2 hardware threads
------------------------------------------------------------------------

And I installed it's lscpu(1) and that reports:
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Architecture:            amd64
Byte Order:              Little Endian
Total CPU(s):            16
Thread(s) per core:      2
Core(s) per socket:      8
Socket(s):               1
Vendor:                  AuthenticAMD
CPU family:              25
Model:                   68
Model name:              AMD Ryzen 7 Pro 7735U with Radeon Graphics     
------------------------------------------------------------------------

Do I misunderstand something from the above?

Best regards,

Dirk
