Subject: [patch -mm4] i386: fall back to sensible CPU model name
Date: Fri, 3 Feb 2006 02:02:37 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <200602030207_MC3-1-B773-7C81@compuserve.com> (raw)
When vendor-specific i386 initialization code is unavailable
the kernel falls back to a default CPU model name. Make that
model name reflect the CPU family instead of an internal vendor
index.
Tested on Pentium II (family 6 model 5).
/proc/cpuinfo before:
model name : ff/05
after:
model name : 06/05
