|
|
(or late 486) provide the

|
|
|
.SM CPUID
|
2012-09-29 02:12:42 +00:00
|
|
|
instruction that returns information about the chip. The
|
2012-09-29 01:57:59 +00:00
|
|
|
.I cpuid
|
|
|
|
|
program enumerates and prints this information in a simple

|
|
|
|
textual format. The output consists of multiple lines prefixed
|
|
|
|
|
with a keyword describing the information that follows.
|
|
|

.PP
|
|
|
|
|
With the

|
|
|
|
.B -r
|
|
|
|
|
option, the format changes to raw hexadecimal output with the
|
|
|
|
|
keyword being the
|
|
|
|
|
.BR AX
|
|
|
|
|
input register to the
|
|
|
|
|
.SM CPUID
|
|
|
|
|
instruction followed by 4 colums with the output registers
|
|
|
|
