Structure
struct test_pal_logical_processor { lfds711_pal_uint_t logical_processor_number, windows_logical_processor_group_number; struct lfds711_list_asu_element lasue; };
Notes
This structure is used by the test programme to uniquely identify a logical core, for the purpose of starting threads and pinning them to a given logical core.
Linux systems have a single ID per logical core, Windows systems have (*rolls eyes*) two unique IDs per logical core, as Windows assigns logical cores into groups of up to 64 cores (which do not exactly map to NUMA nodes, either!), which is why there is the extra field for that group number.
From the point of view of a user implementing the test porting abstraction layer, this structure is only in use when the user is adding it to a liblfds linked list, which is why a struct lfds711_list_asu_element is present.
