That's OK, the kernel problem....
It assumes all nbcfg 54 bit is set.....with out check it.
So it could treat Node1/core0 as Node0/Core1....

Disabling dual core on our s2891 boards with Opteron 270's doesn't seem to work properly. When I boot with dual core disabled, I am getting two cores on one socket enabled and none on the other socket. Here's /proc/cpuinfo with dual core disabled:
p5:~# cat /proc/cpuinfo processor : 0 vendor_id : AuthenticAMD cpu family : 15 model : 33 model name : unknown stepping : 2 cpu MHz : 2010.318 cache size : 1024 KB physical id : 0 siblings : 2 core id : 0 cpu cores : 2 fpu : yes fpu_exception : yes cpuid level : 1 wp : yes flags : fpu vme de pse tsc msr pae mce cx8 apic sep mtrr pge mca cmov pat pse36 clflush mmx fxsr sse sse2 ht syscall nx mmxext fxsr_opt lm 3dnowext 3dnow pni lahf_lm cmp_legacy bogomips : 4029.78 TLB size : 1024 4K pages clflush size : 64 cache_alignment : 64 address sizes : 40 bits physical, 48 bits virtual power management: ts fid vid ttp

It also performs like it's using both cores on one socket. Any thoughts?
Thanks,
