NAME
     hwlocality_creation - Topology Creation and Destruction

SYNOPSIS
   Typedefs
     typedef struct hwloc_topology * hwloc_topology_t

   Functions
     int hwloc_topology_init (hwloc_topology_t *topologyp)
     int hwloc_topology_load (hwloc_topology_t topology)
     void hwloc_topology_destroy (hwloc_topology_t topology)
     int  hwloc_topology_dup  (hwloc_topology_t  *newtopology,	hwloc_topology_t
	 oldtopology)
     int hwloc_topology_abi_check (hwloc_topology_t topology)
     void hwloc_topology_check (hwloc_topology_t topology)

Detailed Description
Typedef Documentation
   typedef struct hwloc_topology* hwloc_topology_t
     Topology context. To be initialized with  hwloc_topology_init()  and  built
     with hwloc_topology_load().

Function Documentation
   int hwloc_topology_abi_check (hwloc_topology_t topology)
     Verify that the topology is compatible with the current hwloc library. This
     is  useful  when using the same topology structure (in memory) in different
     libraries that may use different hwloc installations (for instance  if  one
     library  embeds  a  specific version of hwloc, while another library uses a
     default system-wide hwloc installation).

     If all libraries/programs use the same hwloc  installation,  this	function
     always returns success.

     Returns
	 0 on success.

	 -1 with errno set to EINVAL if incompatible.

     Note
	 If  sharing  between  processes  with hwloc_shmem_topology_write(), the
	 relevant  check  is   already	 performed   inside   hwloc_shmem_topol-
	 ogy_adopt().

   void hwloc_topology_check (hwloc_topology_t topology)
     Run  internal  checks on a topology structure. The program aborts if an in-
     consistency is detected in the given topology.

     Parameters
	 topology is the topology to be checked

     Note
	 This routine is only useful to developers.

	 The input topology should have been previously loaded with hwloc_topol-
	 ogy_load().

   void hwloc_topology_destroy (hwloc_topology_t topology)
     Terminate and free a topology context.

     Parameters
	 topology is the topology to be freed

   int hwloc_topology_dup (hwloc_topology_t * newtopology, hwloc_topology_t old-
     topology)
     Duplicate a topology. The entire topology structure as well as its  objects
     are duplicated into a new one.

     This is useful for keeping a backup while modifying a topology.

     Returns
	 0 on success, -1 on error.

     Note
	 Object  userdata  is  not  duplicated since hwloc does not know what it
	 point to. The objects of both old and new topologies will point to  the
	 same userdata.

   int hwloc_topology_init (hwloc_topology_t * topologyp)
     Allocate a topology context.

     Parameters
	 topologyp is assigned a pointer to the new allocated context.

     Returns
	 0 on success, -1 on error.

   int hwloc_topology_load (hwloc_topology_t topology)
     Build  the actual topology. Build the actual topology once initialized with
     hwloc_topology_init() and tuned with Topology Detection  Configuration  and
     Query and Changing the Source of Topology Discovery routines. No other rou-
     tine may be called earlier using this topology context.

     Parameters
	 topology is the topology to be loaded with objects.

     Returns
	 0 on success, -1 on error.

     Note
	 On  failure,  the  topology  is  reinitialized. It should be either de-
	 stroyed with hwloc_topology_destroy() or configured and loaded again.

	 This function may be called only once per topology.

	 The binding of the current thread or  process	may  temporarily  change
	 during this call but it will be restored before it returns.

	 Topology Discovery
