PB version of CPUID for Intel hardware.

[hutch--]

I converted the MASM libraries I have done recently into PB functions so that the late SSE capacity in PB could be tested on the running processor. As with the MASM versions the code only tests for Intel capacity as I don't have an AMD box to work on.

These are the results on the Intel boxes I have handy.

So hutch, do any of those Core boxes support POPCNT and/or AES extensions?

[hutch--]

Clive,

I have seen it in the reference material but have yet to do any real work on the i7. New box, new OS learning curve etc .... There are newer instructions, crc32, encryption and string handling and I have seen one MOVBE that is supposed to work like BSWAP but on different sized data. The Core2 quad I am currently using goes up to sse4.1 but its main use so far has been multicore/multithread and I have done little in terms of SSE stuff with it.

Slightly Later :

Had a quick play with the return values in ECX to test some of the later capacity, MOVBE, POPCNT AES and a few of the older ones. I get this result on the two different quads.
