MODEL-SPECIFIC REGISTERS (MSRS)

35.18.1   MSRs Unique to Intel

®

 Xeon

®

 Processor MP with L3 Cache

The MSRs listed in Table 35-42 apply to Intel

®

 Xeon

®

 Processor MP with up to 8MB level three cache. These proces-

sors can be detected by enumerating the deterministic cache parameter leaf of CPUID instruction (with EAX = 4 as 
input) to detect the presence of the third level cache, and with CPUID reporting family encoding 0FH, model 
encoding 3 or 4 (see CPUID instruction for more details).

NOTES

1. For HT-enabled processors, there may be more than one logical processors per physical unit. If an MSR is Shared, this means that 

one MSR is shared between logical processors. If an MSR is unique, this means that each logical processor has its own MSR.
