CPUID Leaf 0x1F defines a DIE_TYPE level (nb: ECX[8:15] level type == 0x5), but CPUID Leaf 0xB does not. However, detect_extended_topology() will set struct cpuinfo_x86.cpu_die_id regardless of whether a valid Die ID was found. Only set cpu_die_id if a DIE_TYPE level is found. CPU topology code may use another value for cpu_die_id, e.g. the AMD NodeId on AMD-based systems. Code ordering should be maintained so that the CPUID Leaf 0x1F Die ID value will take precedence on systems that may use another value.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
