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 ?
Here is the output of /proc/cpuinfo:

An Opteron 2210 HE only has two cores. Yours is a single-CPU. Each core is on Processor, the core-count is of all cores bound together (i.e. in one socket), also called the siblings in /proc/cpuinfo 2x AMD Opteron 2344 => 8 processors, each entry with 4 cores and 4 siblings (2.6.18-92.1.22.el5) 1x Intel Xeon E5405 => 4 processors, each entry with 4 core and 4 sibling (2.6.18-53.el5) 2x Intel Xeon E5450 => 8 processors, each etnry with 4 cores and 4 siblings (2.6.18-53.el5) 1x Intel Core 2 Duo E6550 => 2 processors, each entry with 2 cores and 2 siblings (2.6.18-128.el5) 1x Intel Core 2 Duo 6400 => 2 processors, each entry with 2 cores and 2 siblings (2.6.18-128.1.6.el5) 1x Intel Core 2 Duo T8300 => 2 processors, each entry with 2 cores and 2 siblings (2.6.18-128.el5) Nothing unexpected here. Anyways virNodeGetInfo().cpus returns the correct value in your case and in all mine tested too, it should be obtained iterating over the processor-ids as seen in /proc/cpuinfo. My sole xen-Host returns for his E5405 1 core and 1 sibling for each processor via /proc/cpuinfo.
