# libcpuid
libcpuid provides CPU identification. Supported CPU architectures are:
libcpuid provides CPU identification. Project website is on SourceForge (https://libcpuid.sourceforge.net).
## Support
### CPU architectures
- x86:
- 32-bit CPUs (IA-32, also known as i386, i486, i586 and i686)
- 64-bit CPUs (x86_64, also known as x64, AMD64, and Intel 64)
- ARM (since v0.7.0):
- 32-bit CPUs (ARM32, also known as AArch32)
- 64-bit CPUs (ARM64, also known as AArch64)
For details about the programming API, you might want to
take a look at the project's website on sourceforge
(https://libcpuid.sourceforge.net). There you'd find a short
[tutorial](https://libcpuid.sourceforge.net/documentation.html), as well
as the full [API reference](https://anrieff.github.io/libcpuid).
### Operating systems
libcpuid support varies depending on the features:
- build: code build, generate libraries and binaries
- x86 MSR : access to x86 model-specific registers
- ARM CPUID : access to ARM registers

- :x: Not supported
- **¹** On AArch32 state, the kernel module is required. On AArch64 state, the kernel module is optional, because the kernel can trap the [`MRS` instruction](https://developer.arm.com/documentation/dui0473/m/arm-and-thumb-instructions/mrs--system-coprocessor-register-to-arm-register-)

## Usage
### As a software developer
For details about the programming API, you might want to take a look at the short [tutorial](https://libcpuid.sourceforge.net/documentation.html), as well as the full [API reference](https://anrieff.github.io/libcpuid).
### As an end-user
You can use the `cpuid_tool` command. Pass the `--help` argument to display usage:
```
Usage: cpuid_tool [options]
Options:
-h, --help - Show this help
--load=<file> - Load raw CPUID data from file
--save=<file> - Acquire raw CPUID data and write it to file
--report, --all - Report all decoded CPU info (w/o clock)
--clock - in conjunction to --report: print CPU clock as well
--clock-rdtsc - same as --clock, but use RDTSC for clock detection
--cpulist - list all known CPUs
--sgx - list SGX leaf data, if SGX is supported.
--hypervisor - print hypervisor vendor if detected.
--quiet - disable warnings
--outfile=<file> - redirect all output to this file, instead of stdout
--verbose, -v - be extra verbose (more keys increase verbosiness level)
--version - print library version
Query switches (generate 1 line of output per switch; in order of appearance):
--cpuid, --architecture, --feature-level, --purpose, --vendorstr,
--vendorid, --brandstr, --family, --model, --stepping, --extfamily,
--extmodel, --implementer, --variant, --part-num, --revision, --cores,
--logical, --total-cpus, --affi-mask, --l1d-cache, --l1i-cache, --cache,
--l2-cache, --l3-cache, --l4-cache, --l1d-assoc, --l1i-assoc, --l2-assoc,
--l3-assoc, --l4-assoc, --l1d-cacheline, --l1i-cacheline, --l2-cacheline,
--l3-cacheline, --l4-cacheline, --l1d-instances, --l1i-instances,
--l2-instances, --l3-instances, --l4-instances, --codename, --flags,
--clock, --clock-os, --clock-rdtsc, --clock-ic, --rdmsr, --rdmsr-raw,
--sse-size
If `-' is used for <file>, then stdin/stdout will be used instead of files.
When no options are present, the program behaves as if it was invoked with
cpuid_tool "--save=raw.txt --outfile=report.txt --report --verbose"
```
