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, etc.
|
|
- Get information about CPU features such as: number of cores or logical
|
|
CPUs, cache sizes, CPU clock, etc.
|
|
- Check if the processor implements a specific instruction set such as
|
|
SSE2 or 3DNow!
|
|
- Execute the CPUID and RDTSC instructions in a portable way
|
|
- And have this all in your commercial application, without getting into
|
|
trouble, due to permissive license
|
|
|
|
Reference utility (rather advanced and useful on its own) is also provided.
