From f0be6c6a697c2fe8e2efbe98cd157bdbcff969ae Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "H. Peter Anvin" Date: Mon, 4 Feb 2008 16:48:00 +0100 Subject: x86 setup: print missing CPU features in cleartext Instead of obscure numbers, print the list of missing CPU features in cleartext. To conserve space, use a host program (mkcpustr.c) to produce a compact list of mandatory features only. Signed-off-by: H.
