lscpu: Display only information about offline CPUs in a table.
$ lscpu --extended --offline
try on your machine

The command "lscpu --extended --offline" is used to display detailed information about the CPU (Central Processing Unit) architecture of a Linux system. Here's the breakdown of the command:

  • "lscpu": This is the main command used to display CPU information.
  • "--extended": This option provides additional details about the CPU, such as the NUMA (Non-Uniform Memory Access) nodes, socket number, thread number, architecture flags, etc.
  • "--offline": This option shows information about offline CPUs as well. Offline CPUs are those that have been temporarily or permanently disabled or disconnected from the system.

Combining these options, the command will give you an extended and comprehensive overview of the CPU architecture of your Linux system, including offline CPUs. This can be useful for troubleshooting, optimizing performance, or general system monitoring.
