Sometimes it is required to identify the type of a core for taking specific
actions e.g. intel_pstate driver uses the core type to determine CPU
scaling. Also, some CPU vulnerabilities only affect a specific CPU type
e.g. RFDS only affects Intel Atom. For hybrid systems that have variants
P+E, P-only(Core) and E-only(Atom), it gets challenging to identify which
variant is vulnerable to a specific vulnerability, as these variants share
the same family, model and stepping.

Such processors do have CPUID fields that uniquely identify them. Like,
P+E, P-only and E-only enumerates CPUID.1A.CORE_TYPE, while P+E
additionally enumerates CPUID.7.HYBRID. Linux does not currently use this
field.

Add a new field hw_cpu_type to struct cpuinfo_topology which can be used to
match a CPU based on its type.

The hw_cpu_type is populated in the below debugfs file:

  # cat /sys/kernel/debug/x86/topo/cpus/#

What "below debugfs file"? A '#'?

Yeah, no, we're not going to perpetuate this silliness of printing hex
values without a preceding "0x".

Why isn't this happening in cpu/intel.c? And then you don't need yet
another silly function.

That is the number of the CPU. If it is causing confusion, I can will
change it to N, or say # means the number of the CPU.

I thought about that, but the other fields are also printed without a
preceding "0x":

          seq_printf(m, "initial_apicid:      %x\n", c->topo.initial_apicid);
          seq_printf(m, "apicid:              %x\n", c->topo.apicid);
	  ...

I will change those too, probably in a separate patch.

I was preferring to keep the topology related code in one place. Would it
make sense to keep it in Intel specific leg in parse_topology() as below:
