The /proc/cpu info file:

Alternate way to get the CPU cache size

I have a project where I need to get the size of the cache on my Linux machine. I don't know the linux distro, and the /etc/os-release file does not exist. I only know the kernel and architecture:

Kernel: Linux 6.1.20-rt8 Architecture: arm64

I cannot install libraries onto the machine.

To get the size of the cache, I tried the following methods, all of which failed:

$ lscpu | grep cache L1d cache: unknown size L1i cache: unknown size L2 cache: unknown size

$ cat /proc/cpuinfo | grep cache $

$ ls /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu*/cache/index*/size ls: /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu*/cache/index*/size: No such file or directory
