hwloc

Abstraction of hardware architectures

hwloc provides a portable abstraction (across OS, versions, architectures, ...) of the hierarchical topology of modern architectures, including NUMA memory nodes, sockets, shared caches, cores and simultaneous multithreading. It also gathers various attributes such as cache and memory information. It primarily aims at helping high-performance computing applications with gathering information about the hardware so as to exploit it accordingly and efficiently.

hwloc may display the topology in multiple convenient formats. It also offers a powerful programming interface to gather information about the hardware, bind processes, and much more.

Installation

Install the latest version of hwloc as follows:

guix install hwloc

Or install a particular version:

guix install hwloc@1.11.13

You can also install packages in augmented, pure or containerized environments for development or simply to try them out without polluting your user profile. See the guix shell documentation for more information.
