CPU Rename 0.1 - ZmEu <zmeu_at_whitehat.ro>

This is a completely pointless module whose purpose is to change the CPU model name in /proc/cpuinfo. I wrote this for a client who was unpleased not to see the real CPU name when running under a virtual machine. Whatever...

Installation:

  • make
  • make install

(make install may fail if your kernel has never been recompiled, in which case you can just keep the zmeu.ko file around.

Usage:

  • modprobe zmeu (Or if make install failed, insmod zmeu.ko)
  • echo -n "My UltraCool new Processor model" >/sys/modules/zmeu/parameters/cpuname
