Title:
  Allow admin to specify CPU topology as metadata for glance images

Status in OpenStack Compute (nova):
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  Certain operating systems (namely non-server version of Microsoft
  Windows) limits the number of physical CPUs (sockets) to two without
  restricting the number of cores per socket.  This effective limits the
  number of VPUs that can be assigned to a non-server of Microsoft
  Windows to two.  The administrator should be able to configure the
  VCPU/core topology as metadata for images in glance.  This would also
  address problems with software licensed based on a certain number of
  physical processors.
