<strong>Geode</strong> <strong>GXLV</strong> <strong>Processor</strong> <strong>Series</strong>Instruction Set (Continued)7.2.2 Extended CPUID LevelsTesting for extended CPUID instruction support can beaccomplished by executing a CPUID instruction with theEAX register initialized to 80000000h. If a value greaterthan or equal to 8000 0000h is returned to the EAX registerby the CPUID instruction, the processor supportsextended CPUID levels.7.2.2.1 CPUID Instruction with EAX = 80000000hExtended function 8000 0000h (EAX = 80000000h) of theCPUID instruction returns the maximum extended CPUIDlevels supported by the current processor in EAX (Table 7-21). The EBX, ECX, and EDX registers are currentlyreserved.Table 7-22.

The EBX and ECX registers are reserved.The extended feature flags supported are returned in theEDX register as shown in Table 7-23. Each flag refers to aspecific feature and indicates if that feature is present onthe processor. Some of these features have protectioncontrol in CR4. Before using any of these features on theprocessor, the software should check the correspondingfeature flag.Table 7-23.
