I think you're missing the previous discussion on this topic. In short: /proc/cpuinfo is not CPUID but what the kernel supports. The kcpuid tool is supposed to dump CPUID leafs and it should be updatable the easiest way possible. Here's some more documentation which should make this more clear: https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip.git/commit/?id=ea4e3bef4c94d5b5d8e790f37b48b7641172bcf5 -- Regards/Gruss, Boris. https://people.kernel.org/tglx/notes-about-netiquette
