.SH "NAME"
\fBcpuid\fR \- dump and extract information from the x86 CPUID instruction
.
.SH "SYNOPSIS"
\fBcpuid\fR [\-\-help] [\-\-dump] [\-\-vendor \fIname\fR] [\-\-ignore\-vendor] [\-\-parse \fIfilename\fR]
.
.SH "DESCRIPTION"
\fBcpuid\fR is a very simple C program, designed to dump and extract information from the x86 CPUID instruction\.
.
.P
\fBcpuid\fR is capable of dumping all CPUID leaves (except any unknown leaves which require special ECX values to dump all information)\. \fBcpuid\fR can only decode certain leaves, but this functionality will be expanded as the CPUID specifications provided by AMD and Intel change\.
.
.SH "OPTIONS"
\fB\-c\fR, \fB\-\-cpu\fR Index (starting at 0) of CPU to get info from
.
.P
\fB\-d\fR, \fB\-\-dump\fR Dump a raw CPUID table
.
.P
\fB\-f\fR, \fB\-\-parse\fR Read and decode a raw CPUID table from the file specified
.
.P
\fB\-h\fR, \fB\-\-help\fR Print list of options
.
.P
\fB\-\-ignore\-vendor\fR Show feature flags from all vendors
.
.P
\fB\-\-sanity\fR Do a sanity check of the CPUID data
.
.P
\fB\-\-vendor\fR Override the processor vendor string
.
.P
\fB\-\-version\fR Print \fBcpuid\fR version and license
.
