Greetings all , I need to know whether the CPU is enabled for 64-bit processing or not. I tried reading /proc/cpuinfo , bit it is not telling me clearly whether the CPU is 64 bit or 32 bit. I can see some 'ht' flag in the output /proc/cpuinfo but not sure whether it is telling me whether the CPU is enabled for hyper threading or it is indicating a 64 bit processor. I installed dcidecode and it is describing htt flag as "Hyper threading technology" . === $ grep ht /proc/cpuinfo 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 pbe nx lm pni monitor ds_cpl est tm2 xtpr 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 pbe nx lm pni monitor ds_cpl est tm2 xtpr -==
Can somebody please clarify whether the 'ht' flag enabled in the output of /proc/cpuinfo is indicating a 64 bit processor . Apart from that , what other command we can use that will help to determine whether the cpu is enabled for 64 bit prcoessing or not.
