User Commands                                          isainfo(1)



NAME
     isainfo - describe instruction set architectures

SYNOPSIS
     isainfo [ [-v] [-b | -n | -k]  | [-x]]

DESCRIPTION
     The isainfo utility is used to identify  various  attributes
     of  the  instruction  set  architectures  supported  on  the
     currently running system. Among the questions it can  answer
     are  whether  64-bit  applications are supported, or whether
     the running kernel uses 32-bit or 64-bit device drivers.

     When invoked with no options, isainfo prints  the  names  of
     the  native  instruction  sets for applications supported by
     the current version of the operating  system.  These  are  a
     subset  of  the  list  returned  by  isalist(1).  The subset
     corresponds to the basic applications environments supported
     by the currently running system.

OPTIONS
     The following options are supported:

     -b       Prints the number of bits in the address  space  of
              the native instruction set.



     -k       Prints the name of the instruction set(s)  used  by
              the operating system kernel components such as dev-
              ice drivers and STREAMS modules.



     -n       Prints the name of the native instruction set  used
              by  portable  applications supported by the current
              version of the operating system.



     -v       When used with the -b, -k  or  -n  options,  prints
              more detailed information.



     -x       Prints instruction extensions  to  the  native  ABI
              which are supported by the platform.

User Commands                                          isainfo(1)



     Example 1: Invoking isainfo on a 32-bit x86 Platform

     The following example invokes isainfo on a 32-bit x86  plat-
     form:

     example% isainfo -v
     32-bit i386 applications

     example% isainfo -k
     i386

     Example 2: Invoking isainfo on a System Running  the  64-bit
     Operating System on a 64-bit SPARC Processor

     The following example invokes isainfo on  a  system  running
     the 64-bit operating system on a 64-bit SPARC processor:

     example% isainfo
     sparcv9 sparc
     example% isainfo -n
     sparcv9
     example% isainfo -v
     64-bit sparcv9 applications
     32-bit sparc applications
     example% isainfo -vk
     64-bit sparcv9 kernel modules

     Example 3: Invoking isainfo -x on an AMD Opteron CPU

     The following example invokes isainfo with the -x option  on
     an AMD Opteron CPU:

     example% isainfo -x
     i386: fpu tsc cx8 sep cmov mmx ammx a3dnow a3dnowx fxsr sse sse2 pause

EXIT STATUS
     Non-zero        Options are not specified correctly, or  the
                     command is unable to recognize attributes of
                     the system on which it is running. An  error
                     message is printed to stderr.
