the output of the machinfo command tell you "no of cpu" i want to know no of cpu is the number of cores or number of cpu
for example
Code
cpu info
2 Intel(R) Itanium 2 processors (1.6 GHz, 6 MB)
400 MT/s bus, CPU version A2
is that mean we have 2 cpus = 4 core cause it is dual core total=4
or that means 2 core ---> total no of processor = 2 only
another example
Code
CPU info:
Number of CPUs = 4
Clock speed = 1398 MHz
Bus speed = 399 MT/s
CPUID registers
vendor information = "GenuineIntel"
processor serial number = 0x0000000000000000
processor version info = 0x0000000020000704
architecture revision: 0
processor family: 32 Intel(R) Itanium 2 9000 series
processor model: 0 Intel(R) Itanium 2 9000 series
processor revision: 7 Stepping C2
largest CPUID reg: 4
processor capabilities = 0x0000000000000005
total =4 cpus X 2 core => 8 processor
or total = 4 processors only
and what is mean by "Intel(R) Itanium 2 processors " and "Intel(R) Itanium 2 9000 series"
any one can explain this conflict to me i would be thanks \
