How to get the number of CPUs in Linux using C?
#include <unistd.h> long number_of_processors = sysconf(_SC_NPROCESSORS_ONLN);
#include <unistd.h> long number_of_processors = sysconf(_SC_NPROCESSORS_ONLN);
The #[cfg(target_pointer_width = “64”)] from the cfg section in the Rust reference seems like a likely solution. It is based on the size of a pointer (as well as isize and usize), which should correspond to the architecture.
settings.py: TEMPLATE_CONTEXT_PROCESSORS = ( # … ‘django.core.context_processors.request’, # … )
At present there are only three XSLT 2.0 processors known and from them Saxon 9.x is probably the most efficient (at least according to my experience) both in speed and in memory utilisation. Saxon-SA (the schema-aware version of Saxon, not free as the B (basic) version) has special extensions for streamed processing. From the various … Read more
If the cache line containing the byte or word you’re loading is not already present in the cache, your CPU will request the 64 bytes that begin at the cache line boundary (the largest address below the one you need that is multiple of 64). Modern PC memory modules transfer 64 bits (8 bytes) at … Read more
It depends on the implementation. The only thing the C standard guarantees is that sizeof(char) == 1 and sizeof(char) <= sizeof(short) <= sizeof(int) <= sizeof(long) <= sizeof(long long) and also some representable minimum values for the types, which imply that char is at least 8 bits long, int is at least 16 bit, etc. So … Read more
CPUs are word oriented, not byte oriented. In a simple CPU, memory is generally configured to return one word (32bits, 64bits, etc) per address strobe, where the bottom two (or more) address lines are generally don’t-care bits. Intel CPUs can perform accesses on non-word boundries for many instructions, however there is a performance penalty as … Read more
Your assumption about sizeof(int) is untrue; see this. Since you must know the processor, OS and compiler at compilation time, the word size can be inferred using predefined architecture/OS/compiler macros provided by the compiler. However while on simpler and most RISC processors, word size, bus width, register size and memory organisation are often consistently one … Read more
The platform.processor() function returns the processor name as a string. >>> import platform >>> platform.processor() ‘Intel64 Family 6 Model 23 Stepping 6, GenuineIntel’
Try uname -m. Which is short of uname –machine and it outputs: x86_64 ==> 64-bit kernel i686 ==> 32-bit kernel Otherwise, not for the Linux kernel, but for the CPU, you type: cat /proc/cpuinfo or: grep flags /proc/cpuinfo Under “flags” parameter, you will see various values: see “What do the flags in /proc/cpuinfo mean?” Among … Read more
