Structs

SbCPUFeatures

Members

  • SbCPUFeaturesArchitecture architecture

    Architecture of the processor.

  • const char * brand

    Processor brand string retrievable by CPUID or from /proc/cpuinfo under the key “model name” or “Processor”.

  • int32_t icache_line_size

    Processor cache line size in bytes of Level 1 instruction cache and data cache. Queried by sysconf(_SC_LEVEL1_ICACHE_LINESIZE) and sysconf(_SC_LEVEL1_DCACHE_LINESIZE), or from files /proc/cpuinfo, /proc/self/auxv, or CPUID with CLFLUSH instruction.

  • int32_t dcache_line_size

  • bool has_fpu

    Processor has floating-point unit on-chip.

  • uint32_t hwcap

    Bit-mask containing processor features flags. Queried by getauxval(AT_HWCAP) if it is supported.

  • uint32_t hwcap2

    Similar to hwcap. Queried by getauxval(AT_HWCAP2) if it is supported.

  • SbCPUFeaturesARM arm

    Processor features specific to each architecture. Set the appropriate SbCPUFeatures<ARCH_NAME> for the underlying architecture. Set the other SbCPUFeatures<OTHER_ARCH> to be invalid, meaning:

    • ‘-1’ for signed integer fields

    • ‘false’ for feature flag fields

    • ‘0’ for feature flag bitmasks

    • empty string for string fields

  • SbCPUFeaturesMIPS mips_arch

    The reason that the “_arch” suffix exists for mips is because on some platforms that use MIPS as the underlying architecture, “mips” is already defined as a macro.

  • SbCPUFeaturesX86 x86

Functions

SbCPUFeaturesGet

Retrieve the underlying CPU features and place it in features, which must not be NULL.

If this function returns false, it means the CPU architecture is unknown and all fields in features are invalid.

Declaration

bool SbCPUFeaturesGet(SbCPUFeatures *features)
