InstructionSet | string |
Description | string | Identifies the instruction set of the processor within a processor architecture, for programmatic use, using a structured string value (termed 'instruction set string value'). The instruction set should not be used to distinguish instruction set extensions (the InstructionSetExtension property is used for that). The format for instruction set string values shall conform to the 'instset' ABNF rule: instset = org-id ":" arch-id ":" instset-id org-id = IDENTIFIER arch-id = INST-IDENTIFIER instset-id = INST-IDENTIFIER Org-id shall include a copyrighted, trademarked, or otherwise unique name that is owned by the business entity that defines the instruction set string value, or that is a registered ID assigned to that business entity by a recognized global authority. In addition, to ensure uniqueness, org-id, arch-id and instset-id shall not contain a colon (:). The business entity that defines the instruction set string value does not need to own or maintain the definition of the instruction set identified by the string value.

NumberOfHardwareThreads | uint16 |
Description | string | Number of hardware threads available for the processor. May be obtained from SMBIOS v2.5 4 offset 25h.
NumberOfProcessorCores | uint16 |
Description | string | Number of processor cores available for processor. This number would not include cores disabled by hardware and may be obtained from SMBIOS 2.5 Type 4 offset 23h.
ProcessorArchitecture | string |
Description | string | Identifies the processor architecture of the processor, for programmatic use, using a structured string value (termed 'processor architecture string value'). This property should not be used to distinguish instruction sets or instruction set extensions within a processor architecture; the InstructionSet and InstructionSetExtension properties are used for that. Different widths of memory addresses should be distinguished via separate processor architecture values if the corresponding instruction set architectures are sufficiently different. The processor architecture should not designate co-processors that only provide extensions to an instruction set, such as floating point units - these should be represented through instruction set extensions. The format for processor architecture string values shall conform to the 'arch' ABNF rule: arch = org-id ":" arch-id org-id = IDENTIFIER arch-id = INST-IDENTIFIER INST-IDENTIFIER = 1*( UPPERALPHA / LOWERALPHA / UNDERSCORE / DIGIT / "/" / "-" / ".") Org-id shall include a copyrighted, trademarked, or otherwise unique name that is owned by the business entity that defines the processor architecture string value, or that is a registered ID assigned to that business entity by a recognized global authority. In addition, to ensure uniqueness, org-id and arch-id shall not contain a colon (:). The business entity that defines the processor architecture string value does not need to own or maintain the definition of the processor architecture identified by the value. Arch-id shall be unique within org-id. IDENTIFIER, UPPERALPHA, LOWERALPHA, UNDERSCORE, DIGIT are defined in DSP0004. Processor architecture string values defined by DMTF shall have an org-id of 'DMTF' and are all defined in the ValueMap of this property. In addition to the values defined in its ValueMap, this property may have values not defined in its ValueMap. Subclasses may override the ValueMap (and Values) qualifiers to add additional values.

InstructionSetExtensionName | string[] |
ArrayType | string | Indexed
Description | string | Identifies the instruction set extensions of the processor within a processor architecture, for programmatic use, using a structured string value (termed 'extension string value'). Instruction set extensions provide instructions or capabilities in addition to instructions or capabilities provided by the instruction set that is being extended. The format for extension string values shall conform to the 'extension' ABNF rule: extension = org-id ":" arch-id ":" extension-id org-id = IDENTIFIER arch-id = INST-IDENTIFIER extension-id = INST-IDENTIFIER Org-id shall include a copyrighted, trademarked, or otherwise unique name that is owned by the business entity that defines the instruction set string value, or that is a registered ID assigned to that business entity by a recognized global authority. In addition, to ensure uniqueness, org-id, arch-id and instset-id shall not contain a colon (:). The business entity that defines the extension string value does not need to own or maintain the definition of the instruction set extension identified by the string value. Instset-id shall be unique within org-id. Arch-id shall be unique within org-id. IDENTIFIER is defined in DSP0004. INST-IDENTIFIER is defined in the description of the ProcessorArchitecture property. Extension string values defined by DMTF shall have an org-id of 'DMTF' and are all defined in the ValueMap of this property. In addition to the values defined in its ValueMap, this property may have values not defined in its ValueMap. Subclasses may override the ValueMap (and Values) qualifiers to add additional values. This array shall be index-correlated with the InstructionSetExtensionStatus array. The following older x86 instruction set features are not supported by the ValueMap of this property: - 3DNowPrefetch: PREFETCH and PREFETCHW instruction support - CLFSH: CLFLUSH instruction support - CMOV: conditional move instructions - CMPXCHG8B: CMPXCHG8B instruction - DE: debugging extensions - FXSR: FXSAVE and FXRSTOR instructions - LM: long mode - LahfSahf: LAHF and SAHF instruction support in 64-bit mode - MCA: Machine check architecture - MCE: Machine check exception - MONITOR: MONITOR/MWAIT instructions - MSR: AMD model-specific registers, with RDMSR and WRMSR instructions - MTRR: memory-type range registers - OSXSAVE: XSAVE (and related) instructions are enabled - PAE: physical-address extensions - PAT: page attribute table - PGE: page global extension - POPCNT: POPCNT instruction - PSE: page-size extensions - PSE36: page-size extensions - RDTSCP: RDTSCP instruction - SSE: SSE instructions (prefetch subset) - SKINIT: SKINIT and STGI are supported - SysEnterSysExit: SYSENTER and SYSEXIT instructions - TSC: Time Stamp Counter. RDTSC and RDTSCP instruction support - VME: Virtual-Mode Enhancements - WDT: Watch Dog Timer support - XSAVE: XSAVE (and related) instructions are supported by hardware.
