          In RHEL 5 and previous versions, yum install only accepted package names from enabled repositories, and did not accept paths to local RPMs; you had to use yum localinstall to install these.



          In RHEL 6 and later, yum install accepts both package names and local filenames, so localinstall is no longer necesary, but it's included for backward compatibility.



          In RHEL 8, dnf localinstall is simply an alias for dnf install.

          • In RHEL 6 and 7, what's the difference, if it wasn't simply an alias until 8? Is it that localinstall only accepts paths until 8?

          • @LightnessRacesinOrbit Right, localinstall was the old code and only accepts local paths through RHEL 7. In 8, the old code is gone and localinstall is simply install.

          How many registers does an x86_64 CPU actually have?

          Image
          Clash Royale CLAN TAG #URR8PPP up vote 2 down vote favorite I am currently learning reverse engineering and am studying the flags register. I had in my mind that rflags was just another name for one of the 16 general purpose registers, for example rax or rbx . But it looks like rflags is actually an additional register. So that makes 17 registers in total... how many more could there be? I have spent at least an hour on this and found numerous different answers. The best answer so far is this, which says that there are 40 registers in total. 16 General Purpose Registers 2 Status Registers 6 Code Segment Registers 16 SSE Registers 8 FPU/MMX Registers But if I add that up, I get 48. Could anybody provide an official answer on how many registers an x86_64 CPU has (e.g. an Intel i7). Additionally, I have seen references to 'hardware' and 'architectural' registers. What are those registers and how many are there? register x86-64 share | improve this...
