Hi wave Has anyone seen an issue with GCP hosts not returnin

Question

Hi wave Has anyone seen an issue with GCP hosts not returning any information in the `cpu info` table I opened a GitHub issue about it but might be easier to chat here <https github com osquery osquery issues 7976>

Stefano Bonicatti · Answer

Hey < Ryan> the `cpu info` table takes its information from the SMBIOS tables which in a virtualized system are emulated Maybe that information is missing

Stefano Bonicatti · Answer

You could try to check what `sudo dmidecode t processor` gives also running osquery with ` verbose` might provide more information if something is not working

Ryan · Answer

Thanks for the tip I ll take a look at that

Ryan · Answer

```osquery gt select from cpu info I0403 08 35 27 250139 27557 smbios tables cpp 106 Reading SMBIOS from sysfs DMI node```

And the output from the `dmidecode` command ```$ sudo dmidecode t processor dmidecode 3 1 Getting SMBIOS data from sysfs SMBIOS 2 4 present Handle 0x1001 DMI type 4 32 bytes Processor Information Socket Designation CPU 1 Type Central Processor Family Other Manufacturer Google ID 57 06 05 00 FF FB 8B 1F Version Not Specified Voltage Unknown External Clock Unknown Max Speed 2000 MHz Current Speed 2000 MHz Status Populated Enabled Upgrade Other L1 Cache Handle Not Provided L2 Cache Handle Not Provided L3 Cache Handle Not Provided Handle 0x1002 DMI type 4 32 bytes Processor Information Socket Designation CPU 2 Type Central Processor Family Other Manufacturer Google ID 57 06 05 00 FF FB 8B 1F Version Not Specified Voltage Unknown External Clock Unknown Max Speed 2000 MHz Current Speed 2000 MHz Status Populated Enabled Upgrade Other L1 Cache Handle Not Provided L2 Cache Handle Not Provided L3 Cache Handle Not Provided Handle 0x1003 DMI type 4 32 bytes Processor Information Socket Designation CPU 3 Type Central Processor Family Other Manufacturer Google ID 57 06 05 00 FF FB 8B 1F Version Not Specified Voltage Unknown External Clock Unknown Max Speed 2000 MHz Current Speed 2000 MHz Status Populated Enabled Upgrade Other L1 Cache Handle Not Provided L2 Cache Handle Not Provided L3 Cache Handle Not Provided Handle 0x1004 DMI type 4 32 bytes Processor Information Socket Designation CPU 4 Type Central Processor Family Other Manufacturer Google ID 57 06 05 00 FF FB 8B 1F Version Not Specified Voltage Unknown External Clock Unknown Max Speed 2000 MHz Current Speed 2000 MHz Status Populated Enabled Upgrade Other L1 Cache Handle Not Provided L2 Cache Handle Not Provided L3 Cache Handle Not Provided```

hey < Ryan> thanks for checking would it be possible to put this information also in the issue It indeed seems that something might be wrong with either how the table reads the data or how GCP exposes it

Stefano Bonicatti · Answer

I mean SMBIOS seems to be there but there might be something in the structure that s not expected but osquery is silent on this

Ryan · Answer

sure
