643 # @node-id: NUMA node ID the CPU belongs to
644 # @socket-id: socket number within node/board the CPU belongs to
645 # @die-id: die number within node/board the CPU belongs to (Since 4.1)

647 #
648 # Note: currently there are 5 properties that could be present
649 # but management should be prepared to pass through other
650 # properties with device_add command to allow for future
651 # interface extension. This also requires the filed names to be kept in
652 # sync with the properties passed to -device/device_add.
