An independent Linux alternative inspired by desktop processor feature utilities, it reads live kernel interfaces to inspect supported instruction set extensions, memory addressing limits, dynamic loader capability bitmasks, and active microarchitectural errata controls. Key Features: * ELF Auxiliary Vector Decoder (/proc/self/auxv): Reads and decodes AT\_HWCAP, AT\_HWCAP2, AT\_PAGESZ, AT\_CLKTCK, AT\_PLATFORM, AT\_MINSIGSTKSZ, AT\_SYSINFO\_EHDR, and program header entries passed directly from the Linux kernel to user-space processes. * CPU Instruction Set & Microarchitecture Catalog (/proc/cpuinfo): Categorizes active SIMD vector extensions (SSE, AVX, AVX2, FMA), cryptographic instructions (AES-NI, SHA, VAES, RDRAND), paging and cache features, physical/virtual address widths, microcode revision, cache alignment, and per-thread clock frequencies. * SMT & Kernel CPU Errata Telemetry (/sys/devices/system/cpu): Displays real-time SMT state and kernel-reported CPU hardware errata mitigation mechanisms alongside processor category distribution charts. * Structured Reports: Exports complete processor capability, auxiliary vector, and errata tables to CSV and JSON files.

They update automatically and roll back gracefully. Snaps are discoverable and installable from the [Snap Store](https://snapcraft.io/store), an app store with an audience of millions. ### Enable snapd Snap is available for [Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) 8](https://www.redhat.com/en/enterprise-linux-8) and RHEL 7, from the 7.6 release onward. The packages for RHEL 7, RHEL 8, and RHEL 9 are in each distribution’s respective [Extra Packages for Enterprise Linux](https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/EPEL) (EPEL) repository. The instructions for adding this repository diverge slightly between RHEL 7, RHEL 8 and RHEL 9, which is why they’re listed separately below. The EPEL repository can be added to **RHEL 9** with the following command: ``` sudo dnf install https://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/epel-release-latest-9.noarch.rpm sudo dnf upgrade ``` The EPEL repository can be added to **RHEL 8** with the following command: ``` sudo dnf install https://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/epel-release-latest-8.noarch.rpm sudo dnf upgrade ``` The EPEL repository can be added to **RHEL 7** with the following command: ``` sudo rpm -ivh https://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/epel-release-latest-7.noarch.rpm ``` Adding the *optional* and *extras* repositories is also recommended: ``` sudo subscription-manager repos --enable "rhel-*-optional-rpms" --enable "rhel-*-extras-rpms" sudo yum update ``` Snap can now be installed as follows: ``` sudo yum install snapd ``` Once installed, the *systemd* unit that manages the main snap communication socket needs to be enabled: ``` sudo systemctl enable --now snapd.socket ``` To enable *classic* snap support, enter the following to create a symbolic link between `/var/lib/snapd/snap` and `/snap`: ``` sudo ln -s /var/lib/snapd/snap /snap ``` Either log out and back in again or restart your system to ensure snap’s paths are updated correctly. ### Install Processor Feature and Errata Inspector To install Processor Feature and Errata Inspector, simply use the following command: ``` sudo snap install processor-feature-inspector ``` ### Other popular snaps… [See more...](https://snapcraft.io/search?categories=featured) [See more in Featured](https://snapcraft.io/search?categories=featured) ### More things to do… #### [Get the snap store](https://snapcraft.io/snap-store) Browse and find snaps from the convenience of your desktop using the snap store snap. #### [Learn more about snaps](https://snapcraft.io/docs) Interested to find out more about snaps?
