Uh, I just googled this thread and wanted to contribute, I hope it's not considered necroing, since the last reply was quite some time ago, and I'm not even using any SuSE..
This is my Lemote YeeLoong 8089B that I bought in China. I had the chance to even talk to some people who worked on the chinese Loongson-2f processor design at the University of Technology in Beijing (that's the CPU in the YeeLoong), it's running Debian Wheezy/sid modified to work on the Loongson's slighty changed MIPSEL arch with PMON2000 firmware:
And here a hacked open Buffalo TeraStation III NAS running some custom Linux with Busybox, the CPU is an ARM926 (v5 arch level), optimized by Marvell, effectively changing the processor pipeline to do out-of-order execution:
I realize I'm very late to this party but thought you all may like to see what a /proc/cpuinfo looks like from a virtualized Linux guest running on an IBM System z EC12 mainframe!
This particular file is from a guest running Websphere MessageBroker, a middleware application that handles financial transaction traffic management. The two processors identified are cut-down versions of IBM CP's called IFL's (Integrated Facility for Linux)
Wow, a zSeries. I have only seen one such mainframe myself briefly when I was allowed to visit one of the three high security server centers of the Banks of my country (they are located in our capital and serve the whole infrastructure of the country, all national banks included).
I was impressed by the looks of the zSeries mainframe alone!
And now on topic, this is cat /compat/linux/proc/cpuinfo, and shows what linux.ko, the kernel driver of FreeBSDs Linux compatibility layer lets through to the linprocfs subsystem (this is actually PC-BSD 9.2 UNIX, but it's using FreeBSDs kernel):
As you can see, the bogomips is just trash, as they're not computed on bootup. So they just copy the clock rate and use that number. Plus, some other information is obviously missing, like cache alignment, address spaces etc.
Hey, a Westmere-EX! That's one of the rarer Xeons. Speaking of which, does anybody here have a Xeon MP 7140M or 7140N in a 4-way configuration? I guess no? Been looking for one for a benchmark project of mine for what must be years by now.
Hi,
I wanted to understand what exactly /proc/cpuinfo shows?
We have a machine with following specification...
(2x) Intel Xeon 6-core processors
So, ideally it shouls have 12processors, but the output on /proc/cpuinfo shows 24 processors.
Can someone please explain how this is... (3 Replies)
If you are adding the kernel module without any module parameter passing, it should print out following information to info1 file so that user can make read access to info1 file (via, for example, cat /proc/info1):
• Processor type
• Kernel version
• Total number of the processes currently... (1 Reply)
So, I'm looking over /proc/cpuinfo and have a question... I've read that "siblings" refers to hyperthreading, but that seems odd considering the contents of cpuinfo. Here's a part:
model name : Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E5410 @ 2.33GHz
physical id : 0
siblings : 4
core... (1 Reply)
Hi,
I am trying to calculate the CPU Usage by getting the difference between the idle time reported by /proc/stat at 2 different intervals. Now the 4th entry in the first line of /proc/stat will give me the 'idle time'. But I also came across /proc/uptime that gives me 2 entries : 1st one as the... (0 Replies)
Perhaps this is a very dummy question but sorry I don't know other place to do it. We just buy a new cluster of Xeon machines but there is something I don't understand and perhaps someone can help me.
The more /proc/cpuinfo produces the following output (just part of it).
processor : 0... (1 Reply)

I did a search on this, but didn't find exactly the answer I'm looking for. What exactly is the proc directory for? Showing processes spawned by users? I ask because I have some very large files in that directory by multiple users and its affecting my disk usage. Can you limit how many... (2 Replies)
hi,
we all know /proc is about the information of active process,
I have just read an artical which said you can use /proc/cpuinfo,
/proc/net./proc/meminfo etc. to know about some hardware
information .But I want to know how to use with command line? (1 Reply)
