Why do you keep insisting on 90 flags? Nothing is going to have alternate |
| 15 |
code paths for whether you've got pse, pse36, pat, fpu, or ept. The vast |
| 16 |
majority of the flags in cpuinfo aren't ever going to be in anything |
| 17 |
userspace. The kernel might care about them, but even then, most of them |
| 18 |
aren't going to be related to any options you can change. |
