💖 Sys::I...ce::CPU — the Linux CPU Device Driver page, bestie edition 💖

okay so real quick, before anything: this is a page from the User Contributed Perl Documentation set — it lives under the manual name Sys::I...ce::CPU(3pm) (yes the title is literally abbreviated like that, i don't make the rules, the man page renderer does 💀). anyway. sit down, hydrate, let's talk about how Perl figures out what CPU you're running. 🦋

✨ NAME ✨

Sys::Info::Driver::Linux::Device::CPU — the Linux CPU Device Driver. that's it. that's the name. she's a driver, she's on Linux, she handles the CPU device. iconic behavior. 👑

✨ VERSION ✨

version 0.7911 🎀

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

-

so... the synopsis is literally just a dash. a whole mood. it's giving "no notes, read the methods section." not me being obsessed with a placeholder dash 😭

✨ DESCRIPTION ✨

this thing identifies the CPU using Unix::Processors, POSIX, and /proc. that's the whole description. three sources, one job, zero drama. fr fr, she just wants to know what processor you got. 💅

✨ METHODS ✨

🌸 identify

see identify in Sys::Info::Device::CPU. (the actual implementation details live over there, this is just the Linux-specific driver doing its part 🫶)

🌸 load

see load in Sys::Info::Device::CPU. same deal, same energy, go read that page bestie.

🌸 bitness

see bitness in Sys::Info::Device::CPU. yes it tells you how many bits you're working with. no i will not elaborate, the other page elaborates. ✨

✨ SEE ALSO ✨

  • Sys::Info — the parent vibe 💜
  • Sys::Info::Device::CPU — where the real method docs live 🔥
  • Unix::Processors — source numero uno for CPU info
  • POSIX — source numero dos
  • proc filesystem — source numero tres, the classic /proc slay
