.SH "Typedef Documentation"
.PP 
.SS "typedef struct hwloc_topology* \fBhwloc_topology_t\fP"

.PP
Topology context\&. To be initialized with \fBhwloc_topology_init()\fP and built with \fBhwloc_topology_load()\fP\&. 
.SH "Function Documentation"
.PP 
.SS "int hwloc_topology_abi_check (\fBhwloc_topology_t\fP topology)"

.PP
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)\&.
.PP
If all libraries/programs use the same hwloc installation, this function always returns success\&.
.PP
\fBReturns\fP
.RS 4
\fC0\fP on success\&.
.PP
\fC-1\fP with \fCerrno\fP set to \fCEINVAL\fP if incompatible\&.
.RE
.PP
\fBNote\fP
.RS 4
If sharing between processes with \fBhwloc_shmem_topology_write()\fP, the relevant check is already performed inside \fBhwloc_shmem_topology_adopt()\fP\&. 
.RE
.PP

.SS "void hwloc_topology_check (\fBhwloc_topology_t\fP topology)"

.PP
Run internal checks on a topology structure\&. The program aborts if an inconsistency is detected in the given topology\&.
.PP
\fBParameters\fP
.RS 4
\fItopology\fP is the topology to be checked
.RE
.PP
\fBNote\fP
.RS 4
This routine is only useful to developers\&.
.PP
The input topology should have been previously loaded with \fBhwloc_topology_load()\fP\&. 
.RE
.PP

.SS "void hwloc_topology_destroy (\fBhwloc_topology_t\fP topology)"

.PP
Terminate and free a topology context\&. 
.PP
\fBParameters\fP
.RS 4
\fItopology\fP is the topology to be freed 
.RE
.PP

.SS "int hwloc_topology_dup (\fBhwloc_topology_t\fP * newtopology, \fBhwloc_topology_t\fP oldtopology)"

.PP
Duplicate a topology\&. The entire topology structure as well as its objects are duplicated into a new one\&.
.PP
This is useful for keeping a backup while modifying a topology\&.
.PP
\fBReturns\fP
.RS 4
0 on success, -1 on error\&.
.RE
.PP
\fBNote\fP
.RS 4
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\&. 
.RE
.PP

.SS "int hwloc_topology_init (\fBhwloc_topology_t\fP * topologyp)"

.PP
Allocate a topology context\&. 
.PP
\fBParameters\fP
.RS 4
\fItopologyp\fP is assigned a pointer to the new allocated context\&.
.RE
.PP
\fBReturns\fP
.RS 4
0 on success, -1 on error\&. 
.RE
.PP

.SS "int hwloc_topology_load (\fBhwloc_topology_t\fP topology)"

.PP
Build the actual topology\&. Build the actual topology once initialized with \fBhwloc_topology_init()\fP and tuned with \fBTopology Detection Configuration and Query\fP and \fBChanging the Source of Topology Discovery\fP routines\&. No other routine may be called earlier using this topology context\&.
.PP
\fBParameters\fP
.RS 4
\fItopology\fP is the topology to be loaded with objects\&.
.RE
.PP
\fBReturns\fP
.RS 4
0 on success, -1 on error\&.
.RE
.PP
\fBNote\fP
.RS 4
On failure, the topology is reinitialized\&. It should be either destroyed with \fBhwloc_topology_destroy()\fP or configured and loaded again\&.
.PP
This function may be called only once per topology\&.
.PP
The binding of the current thread or process may temporarily change during this call but it will be restored before it returns\&.
