site_archiver@lists.apple.com Delivered-To: darwin-dev@lists.apple.com -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA256 We have a script that needs to detect if the OS is running on Intel hardware. What is the safe way of doing this? Our previous solution was to use system_profiler cpu_type. Interestingly, we have discovered that some systems do not provide a cpu_type string. I also looked at sysctl machdep.cpu. This entry is not even provided on PPC systems. Now I am considering sysctl kern.version although parsing that is likely the same as parsing arch. Is there a recommended solution?
