Is there any difference between processor and core?
- by Salvador
The following two command seems to give me different information about the same hardware
srs@ubuntu:~$ cat /proc/cpuinfo | grep -e processor -e cores
processor : 0
cpu cores : 4
processor : 1
cpu cores : 4
processor : 2
cpu cores : 4
processor : 3
cpu cores : 4
srs@ubuntu:~$ sudo dmidecode -t processor
# dmidecode 2.9
SMBIOS…
