Description
As part of #5932, we could add check similar to the bbr
check during node startup to let validators know if their CPUs support GFNI and SHA_NI or not.
The check can be as simple as running:
grep -o -E 'sha_ni|gfni' /proc/cpuinfo
This should be added as part of the make install
command and also when you start the validator. But instead of blocking, we could just set it as a warning for now. Also, we can include a flag, similar to --force-no-bbr
, which can be called --testing-environment
that bypasses this check. But it should be no op for now
