Hi, thanks for responding. The CPUModel is definitely available on this machine. A 32 bit process on the same machine correctly finds the model name using code that calls the cpuid inline assembly to get it, and the machine itself is a VM running on a Mac, and I get the same model name from the code on Mac and on a Linux VM running on the same machine as well. It seems to be an issue with the Windows port of hwloc, and possibly only with the 64 bit version (I haven’t tried the 32 bit version yet).
I am using the prebuilt binary on Windows. I haven’t tried (and I’m not sure I
want to try) building hwloc from source on Windows x64 using MSVC, but I have
found out so far today that Microsoft makes available a compiler intrinsic to
get access to cpuid as a C function, and that’s supposed to allow you to do the
same kind of cpuid call work done previously as inline assembly. Perhaps
someone out there is more familiar with this specific functionality in hwloc
and can fix this for the 64 bit Windows build? I can take a stab at it, but
like I said, the biggest hwloc development I’ve done is setting a flag in the
configure script when I build on Unix.
As a last question, where is the “CPUModel” documented about where it would
appear? I was looking for that but couldn’t find it.
Thank you for any further advice.
