While the LLC code will do nothing on VMs, it should still work and pass, right?

Strictly speaking this is not correct: VM can get direct mapping to real HW.

On VM's we don't have any Uncore cache and niether the VM's on which tests run have any huge number of cpus. Also these vms are created only intel systems which are old (dell 640/750) .

Correct but the vm's on which the D/S tests run, they are created on old Intel only dell hardware. And these vm's don't have huge number of cpu's or memory and neither the L3 cache on these hardware is huge enough to map them on vm's.

@ffromani @MarSik I have modified the PR to skip tests when L3 cache spans entire NUMA node. This way the tests will get skipped mostly on VM's and BM which dont have L3 Cache shared among subset of cpus

Comment on lines 789 to 791
if len(numaInfo[0]) == L3CacheGroupSize {
Skip("This test requires systems where L3 cache is shared amount subset of cpus")
}

this should work, but (much) better would be to match the cpusets ID by ID

The earlier pr openshift#1397 used to compare if the cpus
returned by ccx are same as numa node 0, which
may not be same, even though the size matches. This
cause the test to not skip on vm.
