__cpuid, __cpuidex

Microsoft Specific

Generates the cpuid instruction that is available on x86 and x64. This instruction queries the processor for information about the supported features and CPU type.

void __cpuid(
   int CPUInfo[4],
   int InfoType
);

void __cpuidex(
   int CPUInfo[4],
   int InfoType,
   int ECXValue
);

Parameters

  • [out] CPUInfo
    An array of four integers that contains the gathered information about supported features and the CPU.

  • [in] InfoType
    A code that indicates what information this instruction retrieves.

  • [in] ECXValue
    The value of the ECX register before this intrinsic generates the cpuid instruction.

Remarks

This instruction stores the supported features and CPU information in CPUInfo, an array of four 32-bit integers that is filled with the values of the EAX, EBX, ECX, and EDX registers (in that order) after you call the cpuid instruction. The information has a different meaning depending on the value passed as the InfoType parameter. The information returned with various values of InfoType is processor-dependent.

The __cpuidex intrinsic sets the value of the ECX register before it generates the cpuid instruction. This enables you to gather additional information about the processor.

When the InfoType argument is 0, the following table describes the output.

Note

With the AMD chipset, all multi-core AMD CPUs set bit 28 of the feature information bits to indicate that the chip has more than one core. This is the case even though AMD does not support hyper-threading.

Some processors, such as the SSE3 and SSE4-enabled processors, support additional InfoType values. When the InfoType argument is 2, this instruction returns cache information in encoded forms.

The following table shows the values this instruction returns when you set InfoType to 4. This is cache information is related to one of the cache levels. To retrieve this information, you must set the ECX register. Use the __cpuidex intrinsic to set ECX to the zero-based index for the cache level to query.

When InfoType is 5, these processors return information about the monitor feature (see _mm_monitor).

When InfoType is 6, processors return information about the digital temperature and power management.

When InfoType is 0x0A, these processers return information obtained by monitoring the architectural performance.

Some processors support Extended Function CPUID information. If this is supported, InfoType values from 0x80000000 might be used to return information. To determine the maximum meaningful value allowed, set InfoType to 0x80000000. The maximum value of InfoType supported will be written to CPUInfo[0]. The following table shows values returned using the extended function CPUID information.
