1 Hello list!
2
3 Does anyone know the meaning of the 'number between brackets' in the
4 "power management" line of /proc/cpuinfo?
5
6 For instance (I snipped the "flags" line to not clutter the email:
7
8 processor : 0
9 vendor_id : AuthenticAMD
10 cpu family : 21
11 model : 2
12 model name : AMD Opteron(tm) Processor 6386 SE
13 stepping : 0
14 cpu MHz : 2800.110
15 cache size : 2048 KB
16 fdiv_bug : no
17 hlt_bug : no
18 f00f_bug : no
19 coma_bug : no
20 fpu : yes
21 fpu_exception : yes
22 cpuid level : 13
23 wp : yes
24 flags : --snip--
25 bogomips : 5631.71
26 clflush size : 64
27 cache_alignment : 64
28 address sizes : 48 bits physical, 48 bits virtual
29 power management: ts ttp tm 100mhzsteps hwpstate [9] [10]
30
31 What's "[9]" and "[10]" supposed to mean?
32
33 (Note: The OS is not actually Gentoo, but this list is sooo
34 knowledgeable, and methinks the output of /proc/cpuinfo is quite
35 universal...)
