Description : libcpuid is a small C library for x86 CPU
detection and feature extraction.
libcpuid is a small C library for x86 CPU detection and feature
extraction. Using it, you can:
... get the processor vendor, model, brand string, code name, ...
... get information about CPU features such as: number of cores or
logical CPUs, cache sizes, CPU clock, ...
... check if the processor implements a specific instruction set
such as the SSE2, 3DNow!, ...
... execute the CPUID and RDTSC instructions (portably!) ...
... and have this all in your commercial application, without
getting into trouble.
