Hi,
dmesg indicates my CPU has the Pentium F0 0F bug...
Initializing CPU#0
CPU 0 irqstacks, hard=c041e000 soft=c041f000
PID hash table entries: 1024 (order: 10, 16384 bytes)
Detected 232.300 MHz processor.
Using tsc for high-res timesource
Console: colour dummy device 80x25
Dentry cache hash table entries: 32768 (order: 5, 131072 bytes)
Inode-cache hash table entries: 16384 (order: 4, 65536 bytes)
Memory: 124684k/131072k available (2212k kernel code, 5888k reserved,
752k data, 200k init, 0k highmem)
Checking if this processor honours the WP bit even in supervisor mode... Ok.

*Intel Pentium with F0 0F bug - workaround enabled.*

CPU: Intel Pentium MMX stepping 03
Checking 'hlt' instruction... OK.
But looking at /proc/cpuinfo indicates the opposite:
processor : 0
vendor_id : GenuineIntel
cpu family : 5
model : 4
model name : Pentium MMX
stepping : 3
cpu MHz : 232.300
fdiv_bug : no
hlt_bug : no
*f00f_bug : no*
coma_bug : no
fpu : yes
fpu_exception : yes
cpuid level : 1
wp : yes
flags : fpu vme de pse tsc msr mce cx8 mmx
bogomips : 465.42
Think there may be a bug in cpuinfo, because I'm sure I remember it used
to say yes for the f00f_bug.
Any thoughts?
Cheers,
Stu.
