 Posted: Sat Jul 17, 2010 4:19 pm Post subject: Translating CPU flags |
 |
|
I have a small problem. I need to find out if the CPU in a box supports SpeedStep. This is a box that I have no physical access to (at least not in the near future...). Running 'cat /proc/cpuinfo gets me the following data:
| Code: | [root@goldie ~]# cat /proc/cpuinfo
processor : 0
vendor_id : GenuineIntel
cpu family : 15
model : 2
model name : Intel(R) Pentium(R) 4 CPU 2.00GHz
stepping : 4
cpu MHz : 1995.516
cache size : 512 KB
fdiv_bug : no
hlt_bug : no
f00f_bug : no
coma_bug : no
fpu : yes
fpu_exception : yes
cpuid level : 2
wp : yes
flags : fpu vme de pse tsc msr pae mce cx8 apic mtrr pge mca cmov pat pse36 clflush dts acpi mmx fxsr sse sse2 ss ht tm
bogomips : 3993.06 |
Which tells me its an Intel, and tells me its not real fast. But I have no idea about the flags, which I hope would tell me whether the CPU does support throttling.
Does anyone know where I can get either a better way of retrieving the needed info, or a translation table for the flags data?

 Looks like it. Never mind, maybe I can sell them a hardware upgrade. 
Thanks for the links - useful in any event and nice to know for future reference.
