Hi,
Tickets 3541 and 4427 are a bit cosmetic in nature.
Instead of specifying Core 2 Extreme for all 45nm Core2's, attached patch
defaults to Core 2.
Is further differentiation desired? like showing Extreme or Xeon if applicable?
my idea would be to add a call to get_cpu_struct()
(found in: headers/private/kernel/cpu.h )
in get_cpu_model_string()
(in: headers/private/shared/cpu_type.h )
and searching the arch.model_name field of the result for xeon and extreme and
based on the result:
- add nothing to 'Core 2' (for the Core 2 Duo's and Quad's)
- add ' (Xeon)'
- add ' (Extreme)'
I could then do the same for the Xeon from ticket 2002 and any other Xeon.
-V
