To what extent does something like the JRE JIT code know about processor specific details?
I honestly don't know. The most obvious thing I can think of is that it might check the L1 cache size, which I believe can be discovered even if the processor family is a new one that the JRE doesn't recognize.
- zanny 14y agocat /proc/cpuinfo. That is what the kernel says about the cpu, which is about as much info as you are going to get without some database lookup on specification data given a model number.
