Small output formatting suggestion:
Code:
  Vulnerabilities: Type: itlb_multihit status: Not affected
  Type: l1tf status: Not affected
  Type: mds status: Not affected
  Type: meltdown status: Not affected
  ...
Would look a lot nicer with a \n on the first line and indents, such as
Code:
  Vulnerabilities:
    Type: itlb_multihit status: Not affected
    Type: l1tf status: Not affected
    Type: mds status: Not affected
    Type: meltdown status: Not affected

@MDKDIO
slightly off topic....I notice appears to have some vulnerabilities?

Maybe wait for h2-1 for better reply?
Leaping ahead....others that might be similar could download a microcode and run it in their grub menu?

If interested in testing that ref
https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/microcode

so for me I would go to
https://archlinux.org/packages/core/any/amd-ucode/
and click the link for "download from mirror" RH side of screen

install zstd and then assuming you have only one download of zst extension
Code:
cd Downloads
tar --use-compress-program=unzstd -xvf *.tar.zst
then use root powers to move the amd-ucode.img to /boot and then run a 40 custom grub menu slight change from arch wiki
NOTE you will need to update 40_custom with each kernel update YMMV

so that the initrd line would be formula

Quote:
initrd /boot/amd-ucode.img /boot/initrd.img
maybe sym link your current initrd-version.img to initrd.img depending on your distro

YMMV

FWIW I do not need that early microcode as I run a initrd that appears to have recent microcodes.

Great tool! Having fun playing across the machines here, thank you

( not Slackware but Suse )

L1 instruction and data caches are reported differently between 'old' and 'new' versions, the old way reporting the sum of the instruction caches minus the sum of the data cache? The new reporting the total of instruction and data.

L2 is under-reported on the old and over-reported on the new, multiplied by the number of logical cores rather than the number of physical cores

https://www.cpu-world.com/CPUs/Bulld...20FX-8350.html

https://www.guru3d.com/articles-page...-review,2.html

With the default Suse version ('old')

More differences in the way cache is reported,

https://www.cpu-world.com/CPUs/K8/AM...600IAA5CS.html
There are many but they are all are..

Level 1 cache size ?
2 x 64 KB 2-way set associative instruction caches
2 x 64 KB 2-way set associative data caches
Level 2 cache size ?
2 x 512 KB exclusive 16-way set associative caches

it seems the total is multiplied up?

I like the 2x ??? style here

edit again, taking the 'Suse old' version across to this 14.2 box...

# ./inxi -V | grep ^inxi
inxi 3.1.00-00 (2020-04-22)

./inxi -Ca | grep cache
L1 cache: 256 KiB L2 cache: 1024 KiB

I feel I should stop now as I'm spamming the board somewhat!

debug!

Level 1 cache size ?
4 x 64 KB 2-way set associative instruction caches
4 x 64 KB 2-way set associative data caches
Level 2 cache size ?
4 x 512 KB 16-way set associative caches
Level 3 cache size
2 MB 32-way set associative shared cache

Only totals for L1 and L2 rather than individual cores are reported ( 2x ??? style from the AMD Athlon 64 X2 4600+ example above would certainly be preferred here )
