Very nice. Hopefully, a "lsblk" will follow, as that is one of my favorite Linux commands.

This is neat and all, but I'm not sure I understand how it's better than 'less /var/run/dmesg.boot'? Which is not to say that this doesn't have any merit, I just don't understand it.

Didn't know it, thank you very much for the tip. That tool would have come handy quite a few times already.

Is this basically what `cat /proc/cpuinfo` is for Linux?

A trivial inspection of my FreeBSD 11.1 system's /var/run/dmesg.boot shows that it doesn't contain all the information displayed by lscpu. So what's hard to understand?

lscpu displays CPU information in a predictable, concise format whereas 'less /var/run/dmesg.boot' requires you to read through a log file that contains a subset of the same information that also happens to be interspersed among unrelated log entries?

It'd probably be more fair to discuss the merits of lscpu vs some invocation of grep '' /var/run/dmesg.boot that produced similar output.

That's a tool I abuse daily at work.

am out of date on freebsd, but IIRC you can 'camcontrol devlist'.. openbsd not so much.

this doesn't give fs-on-disk info however

It is what `lscpu`is for Linux (which provides output quite similar, but not identical to `cat /proc/cpuinfo`).
