Re: [libvirt] [Resending] [PATCH 2/2] Allow x86 to fetch sysinfo from /proc/cpuinfo when dmidecode is absent.

The last patch was mangled by my mailer, resending. From: Prerna Saxena <prerna(a)linux.vnet.ibm.com&gt; Date: Thu, 16 Feb 2012 15:33:43 +0530 Subject: [PATCH 2/2] Sysinfo : Allow x86 to fetch sysinfo from /proc/cpuinfo in the event 'dmidecode' is absent in the system. Until now, libvirt on x86 flags an error message if dmidecode is not found. With this patch, the following is a sample output on x86 when dmidecode is absent: virsh # sysinfo <sysinfo type='smbios'> <processor> <entry name='socket_destination'>0</entry> <entry name='type'>Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU X5570 @ 2.93GHz</entry> <entry name='family'>6</entry> <entry name='manufacturer'>GenuineIntel</entry> </processor> <processor> <entry name='socket_destination'>1</entry> <entry name='type'>Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU X5570 @ 2.93GHz</entry> <entry name='family'>6</entry> <entry name='manufacturer'>GenuineIntel</entry> </processor> ... (listing for all online CPUs) </sysinfo> --- src/util/sysinfo.c | 95 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++-- 1 files changed, 91 insertions(+), 4 deletions(-)
