Trying to use awk to parse lscpu output but can't get it right

Question

Essentially what I want is to extract the byte size of the L3 cache from lscpu. The tricky part is that the units lscpu uses is not consistent across versions and what I need has to work with all versions (including the versions before the --bytes option was available). lscpu from what I can see will either use K, KiB, M or MiB so that is what I'm trying to parse.

Here is what lscpu outputs:

Architecture:          x86_64
CPU op-mode(s):        32-bit, 64-bit
Byte Order:            Little Endian
CPU(s):                16
On-line CPU(s) list:   0-15
Thread(s) per core:    1
Core(s) per socket:    1
Socket(s):             16
NUMA node(s):          1
Vendor ID:             GenuineIntel
CPU family:            6

L3 cache:              16384K
NUMA node0 CPU(s):     0-15

And this is what I have so far but can't seem to finish it off.

$ lscpu | awk '/L3 cache:/{print $3$4;next};/(M|MiB)$/{printf "%u\n", $3*(1024*1024);next};/(K|KiB)$/{printf "%u\n", $3*1024;next}'
0
32768
32768
4194304
16384K

Any ideas how to tweak my awk command to get this working?

Edit: My expected output would just be:

16777216

Answer 1

Really Cyrus' answer is the optimal, but if you're set on awk, try this:

 awk -F: 'BEGIN{def=1024}/^L3/{if($2~/M/){def=def*def}; printf "%u\n", $2*def}'

Answer 2

Get level 3 cache (L3) in bytes:

getconf LEVEL3_CACHE_SIZE

Answer 3

$ cat tst.awk
BEGIN {
    mult["K"]   = 1000
    mult["KiB"] = 1024
    mult["M"]   = mult["K"]^2
    mult["MiB"] = mult["KiB"]^2
}
sub(/^L3 cache:/,"") {
    smbl = $NF
    sub(/[^[:alpha:]]+/,"",smbl)
    print $0 * mult[smbl]
}

$ awk -f tst.awk file
16384000
