This is broken because of how CPUID works for unsupported input leafs:

   If a value entered for CPUID.EAX is higher than the maximum input value
   for basic or extended function for that processor then the data for the
   highest basic information leaf is returned.

For example, my system with a max basic leaf of 0x16 returns 0x00000e74
for CPUID.1F.EAX.

You're right and the cpuid.1f.eax check is unreliable after I checked a few machines.

Checking 'eax != 0' is broken as it will be '0' when SMT is disabled.  ecx
is the obvious choice since bits 15:8 are guaranteed to be non-zero when
the leaf is valid.

I agree with this and ecx[15:8] makes sense.


I think we can skip the vendor check.  AFAIK, CPUID.1F isn't used by AMD,
and since AMD and Intel try to maintain a semblance of CPUID compatibility
it seems more likely that AMD/Hygon would implement CPUID.1F as-is rather
than repurpose it to mean something else entirely.

If it's true, let's skip the vendor check.

If we put everything together, I think the code can be reduced to:

		if (entry->eax >= 0x1f && cpuid_ecx(0x1f))
			entry->eax = 0x1f;
		else
			entry->eax = min(entry->eax,

Based on:

	ECX Bits 07 - 00: Level number. Same value in ECX input.
	Bits 15 - 08: Level type.
	Bits 31 - 16: Reserved.

how about using an increasing order:
