Google: 112 core Intel Skylake processor?

[psyhtest]

"Intel Skylake" is insufficient host processor specification per se, but I doubt it has 112 cores even counting hyperthreading. It appears that the maximum number of threads for Skylake is 56.

It should be 2 chips with 56 threads per chip. I don't think there is a better way to describe this processor. Google sometimes buys non-public SKUs from Intel. I don't think we can offer any more details about Intel's chip.

Thanks @tjablin. It's fine not to disclose any particular SKU details but I was making the case for being consistent with other submissions e.g.
