For topology meaning, it may be better to have cluster concept there. And don't know if there will has a real ARM NUMA system for 64bit server. If so, socket_id is good in a NUMA system.
The scheduler does have a separate NUMA node ID that we're not currently using which I'd have expected to be a better fit for actual NUMA stuff; looking at the options we've got it's not clear to me that with what the scheduler has at the minute sockets aren't a good mapping for what the hardware has. There doesn't seem to be anything between threaded cores and physical packages.
