SYNOPSISx86info [-a] [-c] [-f] [fB-F] [-m] [-mhz] [-r] [?] [--all]

DESCRIPTION
This manual page documents x86info, a program which displays a range of
information about the CPUs present in an x86 system.
In order to make full use of this program you need to have the CPU ID
and MSR device drivers in your kernel with accessible device files
/dev/cpu/<n>/cpuid and /dev/cpu/<n>/msr.
OPTIONS
This program follows the usual GNU command line syntax, with long
options starting with two dashes (`-'). A summary of options is
included below.
? --help
Show summary of options.
-a--all
Show all information. Equivalent to -c -f -m-r -mhz.
-c--cache
Show TLB, cache sizes and cache associativity.
-f--flags
Show CPU feature flags.
-m--msr
Dump model specific registers. This feature is currently
only supported on a few different processors. Future versions
will include parsing of bits in MSRs for all processors.
-mhz--mhz
Estimate current clock rate.
-mp--mptable
Dump MP table showing CPUs BIOS knows about.
-r--registers
Show register values from all possible cpuid calls.
-s--show-machine-check
Show machine check exception information.
-v--verbose
Show verbose descriptions.
