INSTRUCTION SET REFERENCE, A-M

CPUID—CPU Identification

MONITOR/MWAIT Leaf

5H

EAX

Bits 15-00: Smallest monitor-line size in bytes (default is processor's

monitor granularity)

Bits 31-16: Reserved = 0

EBX

Bits 15-00: Largest monitor-line size in bytes (default is processor's

monitor granularity)

Bits 31-16: Reserved = 0

ECX

Bits 00: Enumeration of Monitor-Mwait extensions (beyond EAX and

EBX registers) supported
Bits 01: Supports treating interrupts as break-event for MWAIT, even

when interrupts disabled
Bits 31 - 02: Reserved

EDX

Bits 03 - 00: Number of C0* sub C-states supported using MWait

Bits 07 - 04: Number of C1* sub C-states supported using MWAIT

Bits 11 - 08: Number of C2* sub C-states supported using MWAIT

Bits 15 - 12: Number of C3* sub C-states supported using MWAIT

Bits 19 - 16: Number of C4* sub C-states supported using MWAIT

Bits 31 - 20: Reserved = 0

NOTE:

* The definition of C0 through C4 states for MWAIT extension are pro-

cessor-specific C-states, not ACPI C-states.

Thermal and Power Management Leaf

6H

EAX

EBX

Bits 00: Digital temperature sensor is supported if set

Bits 01: Intel Dynamic Acceleration Enabled

Bits 31 - 02: Reserved

Bits 03 - 00: Number of Interrupt Thresholds in Digital Thermal Sensor

Bits 31 - 04: Reserved

ECX

Bits 00: Hardware Coordination Feedback Capability (Presence of MCNT

and ACNT MSRs). The capability to provide a measure of delivered pro-

cessor performance (since last reset of the counters), as a percentage

of expected processor performance at frequency specified in CPUID

Brand String

Bits 31 - 01: Reserved = 0
