Detailed Description

       Be sure to see the figure in Terms and Definitions that shows a complete topology tree, including depths,
       child/sibling/cousin relationships, and an example of an asymmetric topology where one socket has fewer
       caches than its peers.

Function Documentation

    hwloc_obj_type_t hwloc_get_depth_type (hwloc_topology_ttopology, unsigneddepth)
       Returns the type of objects at depth depth.

       Returns:
           -1 if depth depth does not exist.

    unsigned hwloc_get_nbobjs_by_depth (hwloc_topology_ttopology, unsigneddepth)
       Returns the width of level at depth depth.

   static inline int hwloc_get_nbobjs_by_type (hwloc_topology_ttopology, hwloc_obj_type_ttype) [static]
       Returns  the  width  of  level  type type. If no object for that type exists, 0 is returned. If there are
       several levels with objects of that type, -1 is returned.

   static   inline    hwloc_obj_t    hwloc_get_next_obj_by_depth    (hwloc_topology_ttopology,    unsigneddepth,
       hwloc_obj_tprev) [static]
       Returns the next object at depth depth. If prev is NULL, return the first object at depth depth.

   static   inline   hwloc_obj_t   hwloc_get_next_obj_by_type  (hwloc_topology_ttopology,  hwloc_obj_type_ttype,
       hwloc_obj_tprev) [static]
       Returns the next object of type type. If prev is NULL, return the first object at type type. If there are
       multiple  or  no   depth   for   given   type,   return   NULL   and   let   the   caller   fallback   to
       hwloc_get_next_obj_by_depth().

    hwloc_obj_t hwloc_get_obj_by_depth (hwloc_topology_ttopology, unsigneddepth, unsignedidx)
       Returns the topology object at logical index idx from depth depth.

   static inline hwloc_obj_t hwloc_get_obj_by_type (hwloc_topology_ttopology, hwloc_obj_type_ttype, unsignedidx)
       [static]
       Returns  the topology object at logical index idx with type type. If no object for that type exists, NULL
       is returned. If there are several levels with objects of that type, NULL is returned and ther caller  may
       fallback to hwloc_get_obj_by_depth().

   static inline hwloc_obj_t hwloc_get_root_obj (hwloc_topology_ttopology) [static]
       Returns  the  top-object  of  the  topology-tree. Its type is typically HWLOC_OBJ_MACHINE but it could be
       different for complex topologies.

    int hwloc_get_type_depth (hwloc_topology_ttopology, hwloc_obj_type_ttype)
       Returns the depth of objects of type type. If no object  of  this  type  is  present  on  the  underlying
       architecture,   or   if   the  OS  doesn't  provide  this  kind  of  information,  the  function  returns
       HWLOC_TYPE_DEPTH_UNKNOWN.

       If type is absent but  a  similar  type  is  acceptable,  see  also  hwloc_get_type_or_below_depth()  and
       hwloc_get_type_or_above_depth().

       If  some  objects  of the given type exist in different levels, for instance L1 and L2 caches, or L1i and
       L1d  caches,  the  function  returns  HWLOC_TYPE_DEPTH_MULTIPLE.  See   hwloc_get_cache_type_depth()   in
       hwloc/helper.h to better handle this case.

       If  an  I/O  object type is given, the function returns a virtual value because I/O objects are stored in
       special levels that are not CPU-related. This virtual depth may be passed to other hwloc  functions  such
       as  hwloc_get_obj_by_depth()  but  it  should not be considered as an actual depth by the application. In
       particular, it should not be compared with any other object depth or with the entire topology depth.

   static inline int hwloc_get_type_or_above_depth (hwloc_topology_ttopology, hwloc_obj_type_ttype) [static]
       Returns the depth of objects of type type or above.  If  no  object  of  this  type  is  present  on  the
       underlying  architecture,  the  function  returns  the  depth  of  the  first  'present' object typically
       containing type.

       If some objects of the given type exist in different levels, for instance L1 and L2 caches, the  function
       returns HWLOC_TYPE_DEPTH_MULTIPLE.

   static inline int hwloc_get_type_or_below_depth (hwloc_topology_ttopology, hwloc_obj_type_ttype) [static]
       Returns  the  depth  of  objects  of  type  type  or  below.  If no object of this type is present on the
       underlying architecture, the function returns the depth of the first  'present'  object  typically  found
       inside type.

       If  some objects of the given type exist in different levels, for instance L1 and L2 caches, the function
       returns HWLOC_TYPE_DEPTH_MULTIPLE.

    unsigned hwloc_topology_get_depth (hwloc_topology_t restricttopology)
       Get the depth of the hierarchical tree of objects. This is the depth of HWLOC_OBJ_PU objects plus one.
