The following package has been upgraded in the Cygwin distribution: * cpuid 20211129
The program displays detailed information about the CPU(s) gathered from the CPUID instruction, and also determines the exact model of CPU(s). Whereas /proc/cpuinfo is like an abstract of the features important to Linux in a system, cpuid is a standalone utility which writes a paper expounding on every feature in each CPU's architecture and what it can do, at about the one line per bit level. It is updated and released frequently to stay current with Intel and AMD information and supports other vendors' chips. See the project home page for more information: http://etallen.com/cpuid.html For information about changes since the previous Cygwin release, see below or /usr/share/doc/cpuid/ChangeLog after installation.
