 .B lscpu
 gathers CPU architecture information from sysfs, /proc/cpuinfo and any

 command output can be optimized for parsing or for easy readability by humans.
 The information includes, for example, the number of CPUs, threads, cores,
 sockets, and Non-Uniform Memory Access (NUMA) nodes.  There is also information
 about the CPU caches and cache sharing, family, model, bogoMIPS, byte order,
 and stepping.

 Options that result in an output table have a \fIlist\fP argument.  Use this
 argument to customize the command output.  Specify a comma-separated list of
 column labels to limit the output table to only the specified columns, arranged
 in the specified order.  See \fBCOLUMNS\fP for a list of valid column labels.  The
 column labels are not case sensitive.

 Not all columns are supported on all architectures.  If an unsupported column is
 specified, \fBlscpu\fP prints the column but does not provide any data for it.
