From 7414aa41a63348c3bc72d8c37b716024c29b6d50 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "H. Peter Anvin" Date: Wed, 27 Aug 2008 17:56:44 -0700 Subject: x86: generate names for /proc/cpuinfo from We have had a number of cases where (and its predecessors) have diverged substantially from the names list in /proc/cpuinfo. This patch generates the latter from the former. It retains the option for explicitly overriding the strings, but by making that require a separate action it should at least be less likely to happen. It would be good to do a future pass and rename strings that are gratuituously different in the kernel (/proc/cpuinfo is a userspace interface and must remain constant.) Signed-off-by: H.
