GetCpuFeatures

Retrieves the processor features.

Syntax

IppStatus ippGetCpuFeatures(Ipp64u*
pFeaturesMask
, Ipp32u
pCpuidInfoRegs
[4]
);
Include Files
ippcore.h
Parameters
pFeaturesMask
Pointer to the features mask. Possible value is
ippCPUID_GETINFO_A
.
pCpuidInfoRegs
Pointer to the vector with four elements to store the data from the registers
eax
,
ebx
,
ecx
,
edx
 of the function
CPUID.1
.
Description
This function retrieves some of the CPU features returned by the function CPUID.1 and stores them consecutively in the mask
pFeaturesMask
. The following table lists the features stored in the mask.
If
pFeaturesMask
 does not have any input value, then the function retrieves the features in accordance with
eax=1
 and
ecx=0
. If
pFeaturesMask
 is set to
ippCPUID_GETINFO_A
, then the function retrieves the features in accordance with the input values of the registers
eax
 and
ecx
 that are specified in this case by the
pCpuidInfoRegs
[0] and
pCpuidInfoRegs
[2] respectively.

All features returned by the
CPUID.1
 function can be stored in the vector with four elements
pCpuidInfoRegs
 where each element contains data from one of the registers
eax
,
ebx
,
ecx
,
edx
 respectively. If these data are not required, the pointer
pCpuidInfoRegs
 must be set to
NULL
.
