CPUID(1) General Commands Manual CPUID(1)
NAME
cpuid - Dump CPUID information for each CPU
SYNOPSIS
cpuid [options...]
DESCRIPTION
cpuid dumps detailed information about the CPU(s) gathered from the
CPUID instruction, and also determines the exact model of CPU(s) from
that information.
It dumps all information available from the CPUID instruction. The ex-
act collection of information available varies between manufacturers and
processors. The following information is available consistently on all
modern CPUs:
vendor_id
version information (1/eax)
miscellaneous (1/ebx)
feature information (1/ecx)
It also produces synthetic fields based on information from multiple
CPUID functions. Currently, the synthetic fields are the exact model of
each CPU (but see LIMITATIONS below) as (synth); the multiprocessing
characteristics including the number of cores per chip (c) and the num-
ber of hyperthreads per core (t) as (multi-processing synth); and a de-
coding of the APIC physical ID as (APIC synth).
The determination of the model is based on the following information:
version information (1/eax), processor type
version information (1/eax), family
version information (1/eax), model
version information (1/eax), stepping id
version information (1/eax), extended family
version information (1/eax), extended model
feature information (1/ecx), virtual machine extensions
brand id (1/ebx)
brand (0x80000004)
cache and TLB information (2)
deterministic cache parameters (4/eax), extra processor cores
AMD extended brand id (0x80000001/ebx)
AMD extended processor signature (0x80000001/eax)
Transmeta processor revision ID (0x80860001/ebx & ecx)
The determination of the multiprocessing characteristics and decoding of
APIC physical ID is based on the following information:
feature information (1/edx), hyper-threading / multi-core supported
miscellaneous (1/ebx), cpu count
deterministic cache parameters (4/eax), extra processor cores on this die
x2APIC features / processor topology (0xb)
AMD feature flags (0x80000001/ecx)
AMD Logical CPU cores (0x80000008/ecx), number of logical CPU cores - 1
In addition, a simpler and coarser determination of the CPU is performed
using only the information listed above under version information
(1/eax). It is provided as (simple synth) under version information
(1/eax). However, it tends to be unable to distinguish between various
modern CPUs.
OPTIONS
cpuid accepts the following command line arguments:
-1, --one-cpu
Display information only for the first CPU. This cuts down on
the output on a multiprocessor system, and is useful when cer-
tain that all CPUs are identical.
-f FILE, --file=FILE
Read raw hex information from FILE instead of from executions of
the cpuid instruction. If the filename is '-', instead read
from standard input.
-l LEAF, --leaf=LEAF
Display information only for the specified LEAF.
-s SUBLEAF, --subleaf=SUBLEAF
Display information only for the specified SUBLEAF. It requires
the -l or --leaf option to specify the LEAF.
-h, -H, --help
Display help information.
-i, --inst
Use the CPUID instruction. The information it provides is reli-
able. It is not necessary to be root to use this option. (This
option is the default.)
-k, --kernel
Use the CPUID kernel module. The information does not seem to
be reliable on all combinations of CPU type and kernel version.
Typically, it is necessary to be root to use this option.
-r, --raw
Display only raw hex information with no decoding.
-v, --version
Display cpuid version.
LIMITATIONS
There are numerous cases where there is no way to distinguish between
various CPUs in the (synth) information. In some cases, the sizes of
caches, number of cores, brand strings, etc., can be used to distinguish
multiple CPUs with the same family and model. But there are cases where
that information is insufficient. Whenever cpuid is unable to distin-
guish between multiple CPUs, it will list all known possibilities.
If you believe that a certain processor should be distinguishable from
another and it isn't, please inform the author of this tool.
The (multi-processing synth) information is unreliable on many proces-
sors. It faithfully reports the information provided by the CPUID in-
struction and decodes it as recommended by the processor manufacturers,
but often that information is incorrect. The information seems to indi-
cate the architecture's capabilities, rather than what the particular
chip actually does. In particular, it seems commonplace to claim the
presence of multiple hyperthreads when there is only one.
