 | ||
| 
 | ||
| cpuinfo is a library to detect essential for performance optimization information about host CPU.
 | ||
| 
 | ||
| ## Features
 | ||
| 
 | ||
| - **Cross-platform** availability:
 | ||
|   - Linux, Windows, macOS, Android, and iOS operating systems
 | ||
|   - x86, x86-64, ARM, and ARM64 architectures
 | ||
| - Modern **C/C++ interface**
 | ||
|   - Thread-safe
 | ||
|   - No memory allocation after initialization
 | ||
|   - No exceptions thrown
 | ||
| - Detection of **supported instruction sets**, up to AVX512 (x86) and ARMv8.3 extensions
 | ||
| - Detection of SoC and core information:
 | ||
|   - **Processor (SoC) name**
 | ||
|   - Vendor and **microarchitecture** for each CPU core
 | ||
|   - ID (**MIDR** on ARM, **CPUID** leaf 1 EAX value on x86) for each CPU core
 | ||
| - Detection of **cache information**:
 | ||
|   - Cache type (instruction/data/unified), size and line size
 | ||
|   - Cache associativity
 | ||
|   - Cores and logical processors (hyper-threads) sharing the cache
 | ||
| - Detection of **topology information** (relative between logical processors, cores, and processor packages)
 | ||
| - Well-tested **production-quality** code:
 | ||
|   - 60+ mock tests based on data from real devices
 | ||
|   - Includes work-arounds for common bugs in hardware and OS kernels
 | ||
|   - Supports systems with heterogenous cores, such as **big.LITTLE** and Max.Med.Min
 | ||
| - Permissive **open-source** license (Simplified BSD)
 | ||
| 
 | ||
| ## Examples
 | ||
| 
 | ||
| Log processor name:
 | ||
| 
 | ||
| ```c
 | ||
| cpuinfo_initialize();
 | ||
| printf("Running on %s CPU\n", cpuinfo_get_package(0)->name);
 | ||
| ```
 | ||
| 
 | ||
| Detect if target is a 32-bit or 64-bit ARM system:
 | ||
| 
 | ||
| ```c
 | ||
| #if CPUINFO_ARCH_ARM || CPUINFO_ARCH_ARM64
 | ||
|     /* 32-bit ARM-specific code here */
 | ||
| #endif
 | ||
| ```
 | ||
| 
 | ||
| Check if the host CPU support ARM NEON
 | ||
| 
 | ||
| ```c
 | ||
| cpuinfo_initialize();
 | ||
| if (cpuinfo_has_arm_neon()) {
 | ||
|     neon_implementation(arguments);
 | ||
| }
 | ||
| ```
 | ||
| 
 | ||
| Check if the host CPU supports x86 AVX
 | ||
| 
 | ||
| ```c
 | ||
| cpuinfo_initialize();
 | ||
| if (cpuinfo_has_x86_avx()) {
 | ||
|     avx_implementation(arguments);
 | ||
| }
 | ||
| ```
 | ||
| 
 | ||
| Check if the thread runs on a Cortex-A53 core
 | ||
| 
 | ||
| ```c
 | ||
| cpuinfo_initialize();
 | ||
| switch (cpuinfo_get_current_core()->uarch) {
 | ||
|     case cpuinfo_uarch_cortex_a53:
 | ||
|         cortex_a53_implementation(arguments);
 | ||
|         break;
 | ||
|     default:
 | ||
|         generic_implementation(arguments);
 | ||
|         break;
 | ||
| }
 | ||
| ```
 | ||
| 
 | ||
| Get the size of level 1 data cache on the fastest core in the processor (e.g. big core in big.LITTLE ARM systems):
 | ||
| 
 | ||
| ```c
 | ||
| cpuinfo_initialize();
 | ||
| const size_t l1_size = cpuinfo_get_processor(0)->cache.l1d->size;
 | ||
| ```
 | ||
| 
 | ||
| Pin thread to cores sharing L2 cache with the current core (Linux or Android)
 | ||
| 
 | ||
| ```c
 | ||
| cpuinfo_initialize();
 | ||
| cpu_set_t cpu_set;
 | ||
| CPU_ZERO(&cpu_set);
 | ||
| const struct cpuinfo_cache* current_l2 = cpuinfo_get_current_processor()->cache.l2;
 | ||
| for (uint32_t i = 0; i < current_l2->processor_count; i++) {
 | ||
|     CPU_SET(cpuinfo_get_processor(current_l2->processor_start + i)->linux_id, &cpu_set);
 | ||
| }
 | ||
| pthread_setaffinity_np(pthread_self(), sizeof(cpu_set_t), &cpu_set);
 | ||
| ```
 | ||
| 
 | ||
| ## Use via pkg-config
 | ||
| 
 | ||
| If you would like to provide your project's build environment with the necessary compiler and linker flags in a portable manner, the library by default when built enables `CPUINFO_BUILD_PKG_CONFIG` and will generate a [pkg-config](https://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/pkg-config/) manifest (_libcpuinfo.pc_). Here are several examples of how to use it:
 | ||
| 
 | ||
| ### Command Line
 | ||
| 
 | ||
| If you used your distro's package manager to install the library, you can verify that it is available to your build environment like so:
 | ||
| 
 | ||
| ```console
 | ||
| $ pkg-config --cflags --libs libcpuinfo
 | ||
| -I/usr/include/x86_64-linux-gnu/ -L/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/ -lcpuinfo
 | ||
| ```
 | ||
| 
 | ||
| If you have installed the library from source into a non-standard prefix, pkg-config may need help finding it:
 | ||
| 
 | ||
| ```console
 | ||
| $ PKG_CONFIG_PATH="/home/me/projects/cpuinfo/prefix/lib/pkgconfig/:$PKG_CONFIG_PATH" pkg-config --cflags --libs libcpuinfo
 | ||
| -I/home/me/projects/cpuinfo/prefix/include -L/home/me/projects/cpuinfo/prefix/lib -lcpuinfo
 | ||
| ```
 | ||
| 
 | ||
| ### GNU Autotools
 | ||
| 
 | ||
| To [use](https://autotools.io/pkgconfig/pkg_check_modules.html) with the GNU Autotools include the following snippet in your project's `configure.ac`:
 | ||
| 
 | ||
| ```makefile
 | ||
| # CPU INFOrmation library...
 | ||
| PKG_CHECK_MODULES(
 | ||
|     [libcpuinfo], [libcpuinfo], [],
 | ||
|     [AC_MSG_ERROR([libcpuinfo missing...])])
 | ||
| YOURPROJECT_CXXFLAGS="$YOURPROJECT_CXXFLAGS $libcpuinfo_CFLAGS"
 | ||
| YOURPROJECT_LIBS="$YOURPROJECT_LIBS $libcpuinfo_LIBS"
 | ||
| ```
 | ||
| 
 | ||
| ### Meson
 | ||
| 
 | ||
| To use with Meson you just need to add `dependency('libcpuinfo')` as a dependency for your executable.
 | ||
| 
 | ||
| ```meson
 | ||
| project(
 | ||
|     'MyCpuInfoProject',
 | ||
|     'cpp',
 | ||
|     meson_version: '>=0.55.0'
 | ||
| )
 | ||
| 
 | ||
| executable(
 | ||
|     'MyCpuInfoExecutable',
 | ||
|     sources: 'main.cpp',
 | ||
|     dependencies: dependency('libcpuinfo')
 | ||
| )
 | ||
| ```
 | ||
| 
 | ||
| ### CMake
 | ||
| 
 | ||
| To use with CMake use the [FindPkgConfig](https://cmake.org/cmake/help/latest/module/FindPkgConfig.html) module. Here is an example:
 | ||
| 
 | ||
| ```cmake
 | ||
| cmake_minimum_required(VERSION 3.6)
 | ||
| project("MyCpuInfoProject")
 | ||
| 
 | ||
| find_package(PkgConfig)
 | ||
| pkg_check_modules(CpuInfo REQUIRED IMPORTED_TARGET libcpuinfo)
 | ||
| 
 | ||
| add_executable(${PROJECT_NAME} main.cpp)
 | ||
| target_link_libraries(${PROJECT_NAME} PkgConfig::CpuInfo)
 | ||
| ```
 | ||
| 
 | ||
| ### Makefile
 | ||
| 
 | ||
| To use within a vanilla makefile, you can call pkg-config directly to supply compiler and linker flags using shell substitution.
 | ||
| 
 | ||
| ```makefile
 | ||
| CFLAGS=-g3 -Wall -Wextra -Werror ...
 | ||
| LDFLAGS=-lfoo ...
 | ||
| ...
 | ||
| CFLAGS+= $(pkg-config --cflags libcpuinfo)
 | ||
| LDFLAGS+= $(pkg-config --libs libcpuinfo)
 | ||
| ```
