Great !! Looks like fix is available in -release..

Waited for few hours and tested:

docker.io gets installed now on system having more than 256 CPUs.

Title:
  ISST-LTE:pVM: golang does not support huge amount (>256)  CPUs
  machines (as E870)

Status in golang-1.6 package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  Docker and golang packages are not able to run on e870 machine due to
  a lot of CPU on these machines.

  The current machine has 400 CPUs and shows the following error:

  runtime stack:
  runtime.throw(0x654c60, 0x17)

                                                        Errors were encountered while processing:
   golang-go
   golang-doc
   golang
  E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)

  Looking at the code I see:

  _MaxGomaxprocs = 1 << 8

          if old < 0 || old > _MaxGomaxprocs || nprocs <= 0 || nprocs > _MaxGomaxprocs {
                  throw("procresize: invalid arg")
          }

  If I decrease the amount of CPU to < 256, I don't see a problem.
