Andrew,


I apologize for the delayed response.
I'm not associated with GSoC, doing this purely out of my own interest.

I have a pretty solid knowledge of x86 system topology.
Aware of concepts like CPU/SOC having integrated north bridge. NUMA zones
of a server platform separated via QPI/HT links, etc.

I don't have much experience displaying this information.

Gerard
