* cpupower: Provide -c param for cpupower monitor to schedule process on all coresThomas Renninger2012-11-27
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | If an MSR based monitor is run in parallel this is not needed. This is the default case on all/most Intel machines. But when only sysfs info is read via cpupower monitor -m Idle_Stats (typically the case for non root users) or when other monitors are PCI based (AMD), Idle_Stats, read from sysfs can be totally bogus: cpupower monitor -m Idle_Stats PKG |CORE|CPU | POLL | C1-N | C3-N | C6-N 0| 0| 0| 0.00| 0.00| 0.24| 99.81 0| 0| 32| 0.00| 0.00| 0.00| 100.7 ... 0| 17| 20| 0.00| 0.00| 0.00| 173.1 0| 17| 52| 0.00| 0.00| 0.07| 173.0 0| 18| 68| 0.00| 0.00| 0.00| 0.00 0| 18| 76| 0.00| 0.00| 0.00| 0.00 ... With the -c option all cores are woken up and the kernel did update cpuidle statistics before reading out sysfs. This causes some overhead. Therefore avoid if possible, use if needed: cpupower monitor -c -m Idle_Stats PKG |CORE|CPU | POLL | C1-N | C3-N | C6-N 0| 0| 0| 0.00| 0.00| 0.00| 100.2 0| 0| 32| 0.00| 0.00| 0.00| 100.2 ... 0| 8| 8| 0.00| 0.00| 0.00| 99.82 0| 8| 40| 0.00| 0.00| 0.00| 99.81 0| 9| 24| 0.00| 0.00| 0.00| 100.3 0| 9| 56| 0.00| 0.00| 0.00| 100.2 0| 16| 4| 0.00| 0.00| 0.00| 99.75 0| 16| 36| 0.00| 0.00| 0.00| 99.38 ...

* cpupower: Better interface for accessing AMD pci registersThomas Renninger2012-03-03
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | AMD's BKDG (Bios and Kernel Developers Guide) talks in the CPU spec of their CPU families about PCI registers defined by "device" (slot) and func(tion). Assuming that CPU specific configuration PCI devices are always on domain and bus zero a pci_slot_func_init() func which gets the slot and func of the desired PCI device passed looks like the most convenient way. This also obsoletes the PCI device id maintenance.

* cpupower: use man(1) when calling "cpupower help subcommand"Dominik Brodowski2011-08-19

* cpupower: Make monitor command -c/--cpu awareThomas Renninger2011-08-15
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This allows for example: cpupower -c 2-4,6 monitor -m Mperf |Mperf PKG |CORE|CPU | C0 | Cx | Freq 0| 8| 4| 2.42| 97.58| 1353 0| 16| 2| 14.38| 85.62| 1928 0| 24| 6| 1.76| 98.24| 1442 1| 16| 3| 15.53| 84.47| 1650 CPUs always get resorted for package, core then cpu id if it could get read out (or however you name these topology levels...). Still this is a nice way to keep the overview if a test binary is bound to a specific CPU or if one wants to show all CPUs inside a package or similar. Still missing: Do not measure not available cores to reduce the overhead and achieve better results.

* cpupower: Better detect offlined CPUsThomas Renninger2011-08-15
| | | | | | | | | | | | Before, checking for offlined CPUs was done dirty and it was checked whether topology parsing returned -1 values. But this is a valid case on a Xen (and possibly other) kernels. Do proper online/offline checking, also take CONFIG_HOTPLUG_CPU option into account (no /sys/devices/../cpuX/online file).

* cpupower: mperf monitor - Use TSC to calculate max frequency if possibleThomas Renninger2011-08-15

* cpupowerutils - cpufrequtils extended with quite some featuresDominik Brodowski2011-07-29
CPU power consumption vs performance tuning is no longer limited to CPU frequency switching anymore: deep sleep states, traditional dynamic frequency scaling and hidden turbo/boost frequencies are tied close together and depend on each other. The first two exist on different architectures like PPC, Itanium and ARM, the latter (so far) only on X86. On X86 the APU (CPU+GPU) will only run most efficiently if CPU and GPU has proper power management in place. Users and Developers want to have *one* tool to get an overview what their system supports and to monitor and debug CPU power management in detail. The tool should compile and work on as many architectures as possible. Once this tool stabilizes a bit, it is intended to replace the Intel-specific tools in tools/power/x86 Signed-off-by: Dominik Brodowski <linux@dominikbrodowski.net>
