Table Of Contents
-1, --one-cpu display information only for the current CPU
-f FILE, --file=FILE read raw hex information (-r output) from FILE instead
of from executions of the cpuid instruction
-h, -H, --help display this help information
-i, --inst use the CPUID instruction: The information it provides
is reliable. It is not necessary to be root.
(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.
-r, --raw display raw hex information with no decoding
-v, --version display cpuid version

Configuration File Format
There is no configuration file associated with the cputool.
eepromtool
To program the type, length, value (TLV) format EEPROMs, use the eepromtool. You can also use the eepromtool to show all
the TLV-formatted EEPROM contents or show specific EEPROM content by specifying the EEPROM type.
Tests
The test option in EEPROM devices allows you to verify the MAC address. Use this test for MAC address consistency.
