Hello,

Concerning the recent problem announced by Intel on some I2 chips, do anyone
of you have a pointer to a script/C Code/whatever code which could give a
clear answer for the processor on which we are running ?
(I didn't had customer requests up yo now, but I prefer to be early :-)

Would it be also possible to include it in the result of /proc/cpuinfo as
it was done for pentium processor bugs some time ago:

[bruno@morley ~/Download]$ cat /proc/cpuinfo=20
[...]
fdiv_bug        : no
hlt_bug         : no
f00f_bug        : no
coma_bug        : no
[...]

Of course in case of answer for point 1, I could try to propose a patch for=
=20
point 2 (even if I never made kernel patches up to now).

TIA for any feedback,
Bruno.
