Subject: [PATCH 1/5] x86, cpu: Add AMD core boosting feature flag to /proc/cpuinfo
Date: Wed, 24 Mar 2010 18:46:19 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1269452783-966-2-git-send-email-bp@amd64.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1269452783-966-1-git-send-email-bp@amd64.org>
From: Borislav Petkov <borislav.petkov@amd.com>
By semi-popular demand, this adds the Core Performance Boost feature
flag to /proc/cpuinfo. Possible use case for this is userspace tools
like cpufreq-aperf, for example, so that they don't have to jump through
hoops of accessing "/dev/cpu/%d/cpuid" in order to check for CPB hw
support.
