Coreinfo
Coreinfo is a command line tool of Windows that displays the assignment between logical and physical processors. Furthermore, it displays the cache that is assigned to each logical processor. Coreinfo uses the function GetLogicalProcessorInformation of Windows to receive this information. Coreinfo is useful to get an insight of the processor and cache topology of a system.
Coreinfo of an Intel Core i5-1235U as an example

The following example shows the issue of Coreinfo64.exe on a LES plus v4 with Intel Core i5-1235U (12th Gen Intel Core - Alder Lake) hybrid processor. This one has over 2 Performance-Cores (with Hyperthreading) as well as over 8 Efficent-Cores:
