How to check (via software) if my usb 3.1gen2 Type-C port supports Thunderbolt3?
1 answer
I have a Dell XPS 13 on which I have installed Ubuntu. I would like to know if it has PCIe x4 or x2.
Edit 1:
I already know that it is Thunderbolt, just don't know how many PCIe lanes it has.
Edit 2:
This is what I got after trying the suggested command.
$ sudo dmidecode | grep PCI

Type this in a terminal sudo dmidecode | grep PCI
it will tell you which Pci-e slots you have.
Edit: This should work in an indirect way. Type sudo lspci -vv | grep -E 'PCI bridge|LnkCap'
in a terminal it should show you something like this:
00:14.4 PCI bridge: Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. [AMD] FCH PCI Bridge (rev 40) (prog-if 01 [Subtractive decode])
00:15.0 PCI bridge: Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. [AMD] Hudson PCI to PCI bridge (PCIE port 0) (prog-if 00 [Normal decode])
LnkCap: Port #247, Speed 5GT/s, Width x1, ASPM L0s L1, Exit Latency L0s <64ns, L1 <1us
Capabilities: [b0] Subsystem: Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. [AMD] Hudson PCI to PCI bridge (PCIE port 0)
00:15.1 PCI bridge: Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. [AMD] Hudson PCI to PCI bridge (PCIE port 1) (prog-if 00 [Normal decode])
LnkCap: Port #1, Speed 5GT/s, Width x1, ASPM L0s L1, Exit Latency L0s <64ns, L1 <1us
Capabilities: [b0] Subsystem: Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. [AMD] Hudson PCI to PCI bridge (PCIE port 1)
LnkCap: Port #0, Speed 2.5GT/s, Width x1, ASPM L0s L1, Exit Latency L0s unlimited, L1 unlimited
Now just check what version corresponds to the specs you have here and you should be good to go.
I tried that, but I still have no idea if it is x2 or x4. I added the results to the original post. Any idea?

I apologize for not making my question clear initially. I wanted to know if my thunderbolt port has four pcie lanes or two pcie lanes. I did try the command and left the information it showed in my post.
