On systems with large CPUs per node, even with the filtered matching of related CPUs, there can be large number of calls to cpu_to_chip_id for the same CPU. For example with 4096 vCPU, 1 node QEMU configuration, with 4 threads per core, system could be see upto 1024 calls to cpu_to_chip_id() for the same CPU. On a given system, cpu_to_chip_id() for a given CPU would always return the same. Hence cache the result in a lookup table for use in subsequent calls. Since all CPUs sharing the same core will belong to the same chip, the lookup_table has an entry for one CPU per core. chip_id_lookup_table is not being freed and would be used on subsequent CPU online post CPU offline.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
