cpuid interaction library
cpuid
is an instruction supported in various architectures that performs processor introspection, grabbing information about processor type and feature support (i.e SSE).
We create a simple wrapper to cpuid
to C and Python.
-
Extensible Base C library - libcpuid provides a base library that can easily be plugged into any programming language through FFI (or the language's API, if permittable). There are Python bindings available with this library.
-
Easy-to-use methods - libcpuid utilizes straightforward and simple methods for users.
To build the Python (3.6.x) bindings:
$ python setup.py install
$ python
...
> import cpuid
