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
       package has fewer caches than its peers.

Function Documentation

   hwloc_obj_type_t hwloc_get_depth_type (hwloc_topology_t topology, int
       depth)
       Returns the type of objects at depth depth. depth should between 0 and
       hwloc_topology_get_depth()-1, or a virtual depth such as
       HWLOC_TYPE_DEPTH_NUMANODE.

       Returns
           (hwloc_obj_type_t)-1 if depth depth does not exist.



   int hwloc_get_memory_parents_depth (hwloc_topology_t topology)
       Return the depth of parents where memory objects are attached. Memory
       objects have virtual negative depths because they are not part of the
       main CPU-side hierarchy of objects. This depth should not be compared
       with other level depths.

       If all Memory objects are attached to Normal parents at the same depth,
       this parent depth may be compared to other as usual, for instance for
       knowing whether NUMA nodes is attached above or below Packages.

       Returns
           The depth of Normal parents of all memory children if all these
           parents have the same depth. For instance the depth of the Package
           level if all NUMA nodes are attached to Package objects.

           HWLOC_TYPE_DEPTH_MULTIPLE if Normal parents of all memory children
           do not have the same depth. For instance if some NUMA nodes are
           attached to Packages while others are attached to Groups.



   unsigned hwloc_get_nbobjs_by_depth (hwloc_topology_t topology, int depth)
       Returns the width of level at depth depth.

   static int hwloc_get_nbobjs_by_type (hwloc_topology_t topology,
       hwloc_obj_type_t type) [inline],  [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 hwloc_obj_t hwloc_get_next_obj_by_depth (hwloc_topology_t topology,
       int depth, hwloc_obj_t prev) [inline],  [static]
       Returns the next object at depth depth. If prev is NULL, return the
       first object at depth depth.

   static hwloc_obj_t hwloc_get_next_obj_by_type (hwloc_topology_t topology,
       hwloc_obj_type_t type, hwloc_obj_t prev) [inline],  [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_t topology, int depth,
       unsigned idx)
       Returns the topology object at logical index idx from depth depth.

   static hwloc_obj_t hwloc_get_obj_by_type (hwloc_topology_t topology,
       hwloc_obj_type_t type, unsigned idx) [inline],  [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 (HWLOC_OBJ_GROUP), NULL is returned
       and the caller may fallback to hwloc_get_obj_by_depth().

   static hwloc_obj_t hwloc_get_root_obj (hwloc_topology_t topology) [inline],
       [static]
       Returns the top-object of the topology-tree. Its type is
       HWLOC_OBJ_MACHINE.

   int hwloc_get_type_depth (hwloc_topology_t topology, hwloc_obj_type_t type)
       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 HWLOC_OBJ_GROUP is given, the function may return
       HWLOC_TYPE_DEPTH_MULTIPLE if multiple levels of Groups exist.

       If a NUMA node, I/O or Misc object type is given, the function returns
       a virtual value because these 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.

       See also
           hwloc_get_memory_parents_depth().

           hwloc_type_sscanf_as_depth() for returning the depth of objects
           whose type is given as a string.



   static int hwloc_get_type_or_above_depth (hwloc_topology_t topology,
       hwloc_obj_type_t type) [inline],  [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.

       This function is only meaningful for normal object types. If a memory,
       I/O or Misc object type is given, the corresponding virtual depth is
       always returned (see hwloc_get_type_depth()).

       May return HWLOC_TYPE_DEPTH_MULTIPLE for HWLOC_OBJ_GROUP just like
       hwloc_get_type_depth().

   static int hwloc_get_type_or_below_depth (hwloc_topology_t topology,
       hwloc_obj_type_t type) [inline],  [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.

       This function is only meaningful for normal object types. If a memory,
       I/O or Misc object type is given, the corresponding virtual depth is
       always returned (see hwloc_get_type_depth()).

       May return HWLOC_TYPE_DEPTH_MULTIPLE for HWLOC_OBJ_GROUP just like
       hwloc_get_type_depth().

   int hwloc_topology_get_depth (hwloc_topology_t restrict topology)
       Get the depth of the hierarchical tree of objects. This is the depth of
       HWLOC_OBJ_PU objects plus one.

       Note
           NUMA nodes, I/O and Misc objects are ignored when computing the
           depth of the tree (they are placed on special levels).
