[patch -mm4] i386: fall back to sensible CPU model name

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



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
