Description

Applications can detect x86 CPU vendor, model, and instruction-set features through a small C library. It helps developers choose optimized code paths, show hardware information, or validate CPU requirements.

Hardware detection should not be the only safety check for optimized code. Test fallback paths and avoid exposing unnecessary hardware details in reports.
