Options for lscpu command are giving incorrect output.
As per the man page or help, '-b' option should limit the output to online CPUs
and '-c' option should limit the output to offline CPUs.
But we could see the output is same for '-a','-b' and '-c' options.

The -a, -b and -c options were meant to influence the output for the
extended (-e) and parsable (-p) output options.
I'm not sure it makes sense to change the default output with these
options. I'd prefer an update of the man page.

Hm?

This fix is not going to influence the default output with these options 

(-e and -p),

and it does not make any sense if -a, -b and -c option print same output.

Thanks
