Ovo je mini linux howto za proveru da li je procesor i/ili operativni sistem 32bit-a ili 64bit-a (x86 platforma). Realna situacija u kojoj možete da naiđete na potrebu da ovako nešto proveravate je ako dođete na potpuno nepoznat “teren” pa treba da utvrdite šta je od postojeće opreme iskorišćeno i kako. Pa eto malog mini howto-a na ovu temu.
a) ako uname vrati sledeće:
# uname -m
x86_64
Onda je u pitanju 64bit OS a samim tim i procesor.
b) Ako vrne recimo:
# uname -m
i686
To može i ne mora da znači da je procesor 32-bitan. Da bi definitivno utvrdili koji operativni sistem je instaliran potrebno je otkucati sledeću komandu:
32 bit-a:
# file /sbin/init
/sbin/init: ELF 32-bit LSB shared object, Intel 80386, version 1 (SYSV),
for GNU/Linux 2.6.8, dynamically linked (uses shared libs), stripped
64 bit-a:
# file /sbin/init
/sbin/init: ELF 64-bit LSB executable, AMD x86-64, version 1 (SYSV),
for GNU/Linux 2.6.4, statically linked, for GNU/Linux 2.6.4, stripped
Time će te videti da li je instalirani operativni sistem instaliran za 32 ili 64bitnu arhitekturu.
c) Komanda: # cat /proc/cpuinfo može vam dati specifikaciju procesora kao i sve njegove
mogućnosti. To se vidi u segmentu Flags i to izgleda otprilike ovako:
processor : 0
vendor_id : GenuineIntel
cpu family : 6
model : 15
model name : Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU 5110 @ 1.60GHz
stepping : 6
cpu MHz : 1595.930
cache size : 4096 KB
physical id : 3
siblings : 2
core id : 0
cpu cores : 2
fpu : yes
fpu_exception : yes
cpuid level : 10
wp : yes
flags : fpu vme de pse tsc msr pae mce cx8 apic sep mtrr pge mca cmov
pat pse36 clflush dts acpi mmx fxsr sse sse2 ss ht tm syscall nx lm constant_tsc pni
monitor ds_cpl vmx tm2 cx16 xtpr dca lahf_lm
bogomips : 3195.07
clflush size : 64
cache_alignment : 64
address sizes : 36 bits physical, 48 bits virtual
power management:
jer 64bitni procesor ima flag LM koji je označen crvenom bojom u gornjem tekstu.
Ako vas interesuje šta znači koji flag na procesoru koji je na datom sistemu, ukoliko je sistem
32-bitan opis flagova se nalazi u ovom fajlu: # cat /usr/include/asm/cpufeature.h a ako je sistem 64-bitan onda u: # cat /usr/include/asm-x86_64/cpufeature.h
I to izgleda otprilike ovako (za gore navedeni procesor):
Posle X86_FEATURE_<OVDE JE CPU FLAG> a zatim opis flag-a.
