Can you share bootup logs or whatever you are seeing that is showing only 64 CPUs? The sources should be setting NR_CPUs to 1024 on x86_64

That is extremely strange.  If you look at the corresponding config file in /boot, it should indeed be 1024 as Laura said.  So I don't think it's a CONFIG_NR_CPUS problem that you're seeing.

Never mind. It turned out the system actually only had 64 CPUs, so no bug. Sorry for the noise.
