Peter is confused :-) So you're saying that:
- old Intel is pkg wide (it has no DIE enumeration)
- Cascadelake (part of the skylake refresh) is per-DIE
- modern Intel is pkg wide (they have no DIE enumeration)
- future Intel will be pkg wide
And this works because for everything that does not enumerate a specific
DIE topology, it ends up begin the same as the PKG topology.
But what about future products that have DIE but are not CASCADE (what
about COOPERLAKE) ?
If this really is a one off for CASCADE, then yes, I think we should be
doing what Dhananjay suggests, and then the PKG naming is fine.
