Release Notes: Support for many new CPUs was added. The program now supports FreeBSD and Solaris. Code was cleaned up and several minor bugs were fixed.

Release Notes: Since the previous freshmeat announcement, many updates were made, allowing recognition of newer CPUs.

Release Notes: Identifies several new CPUS. Additional MSR decoding on various CPUs. A few misidentification bugs have been fixed. Completely rewritten cachesize determination. Various new cache descriptors added. Numerous MHz estimation improvements. AMD K7 powernow register/BIOS decoding. Now decodes extended Intel feature flags, cpuid brand field, and sSpec on some models. AMD Opteron/Athlon64 support. VIA Powersaver/Longhaul support. A --bugs option to display CPU errata. No longer retries opening /dev/msr if the first open fails. Fixes a memory leak in --url.

Release Notes: Better formatting for narrow terminals, a command line option to print the URL of an errata or datasheet if it is known, and extra verbosity. There was a Pentium 4 Xeon Northwood identification fix, the addition of socket types for AMD Clawhammer, more Pentium Pro steppings, and a reorganisation of Athlon MP/XP/4/Mobile determination. The flags/eflags per-CPU check now tests that MTRRs are available before dumping them, and the VIA Cyrix 3 cache size errata is mentioned when the workaround is in use. Various code cleanups were also made.

Release Notes: Added recognition for newer P4 Xeons, AMD Clawhammer ES, VIA Cyrix Ezra-T, and several new Intel cache descriptors. It is now possible to dump MTRR registers and decode the AMD K6 EFER register. The output of the machine check registers was reformatted, bugs discovered using valgrind were fixed, and the type of CPU socket in use is now displayed. There was also an internal code cleanup.
