virNodeGetInfo() returns .cpus as 2 but the /proc/cpuinfo of the node shows 2 processors with 2 cores each ('cpu cores') . Or maybe the 'core id' is what counts in the /proc/cpuinfo and that one gets vaue 0 , 1 only i.e totally 2
can you clarify ?
What libvirt driver are you using ? QEMU or Xen. The answer can be quite complicated. In essence, for Xen, the /proc/cpuinfo does *not* reflect your actual physical CPU topology. So for Xen we get the real data from the hypervisor directly. For QEMU, libvirt just parses /proc/cpuinfo. Your cpuinfo output below, shows 1 physical CPU with 2 cores
Here is the output of /proc/cpuinfo:
