Manual page for MC68881VERSION(8)
mc68881version - print the MC68881 mask number and approximate clock rate
SYNOPSIS
/usr/etc/mc68881version
AVAILABILITY
Sun-2, Sun-3, and Sun-4 systems only.
DESCRIPTION
mc68881version
determines whether an
MC68881
or
MC68882
floating-point coprocessor is available,
and if so, determines its apparent mask number and
approximate clock rate and prints them
on the standard output.
The reported clock rate is derived by timing floating-point
operations with
getrusage.2
and is thus somewhat variable; best results may be obtained
in single-user mode.
The same applies to the differentiation between
MC68881
and
MC68882 ;
these can be distinguished in user mode only by timing tests.
