Use `cpuid.CPU.Supports()` to check for CPU features. +A faster `cpuid.CPU.Has()` is provided which will usually be inlined by the gc compiler. + +Note that for some cpu/os combinations some features will not be detected. +`amd64` has rather good support and should work reliably on all platforms. + +Note that hypervisors may not pass through all CPU features. + +## arm64 feature detection + +Not all operating systems provide ARM features directly +and there is no safe way to do so for the rest. + +Currently `arm64/linux` and `arm64/freebsd` should be quite reliable. +`arm64/darwin` adds features expected from the M1 processor, but a lot remains undetected. + +A `DetectARM()` can be used if you are able to control your deployment, +it will detect CPU features, but may crash if the OS doesn't intercept the calls. +A `-cpu.arm` flag for detecting unsafe ARM features can be added. See below. + +Note that currently only features are detected on ARM, +no additional information is currently available. + +## flags + +It is possible to add flags that affects cpu detection. + +For this the `Flags()` command is provided. + +This must be called *before* `flag.Parse()` AND after the flags have been parsed `Detect()` must be called. + +This means that any detection used in `init()` functions will not contain these flags. + +Example: + +```Go +package main + +import ( + "flag" + "fmt" + "strings" + + "github.com/klauspost/cpuid/v2" +) + +func main() { + cpuid.Flags() + flag.Parse() + cpuid.Detect() + + // Test if we have these specific features: + if cpuid.CPU.Supports(cpuid.SSE, cpuid.SSE2) { + fmt.Println("We have Streaming SIMD 2 Extensions") + } +} +``` + +# license + +This code is published under an MIT license.
