2024-06-20cpupower: Remove absent 'v' parameter from monitor man pageRoman Storozhenko
Remove not supported '-v' parameter from the cpupower's 'monitor' command description. There is a '-v' parameter described in cpupower's 'monitor' command man page. It isn't supported at the moment, and perhaps has never been supported. When I run the monitor with this parameter I get the following: $ sudo LD_LIBRARY_PATH=lib64/ bin/cpupower monitor -v monitor: invalid option -- 'v' invalid or unknown argument $ sudo LD_LIBRARY_PATH=lib64/ bin/cpupower monitor -V monitor: invalid option -- 'V' invalid or unknown argument Signed-off-by: Roman Storozhenko <romeusmeister@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Shuah Khan <skhan@linuxfoundation.org>
2024-06-18cpupower: Replace a dead reference link with working onesRoman Storozhenko
Replace a dead reference link to a turbo boost technology description with a reference to a root page of the technology on the Intel site, and add another one, describing power management technology, which includes short description of the turbo boost.

2020-07-17cpupower: Replace HTTP links with HTTPS onesAlexander A. Klimov
Rationale: Reduces attack surface on kernel devs opening the links for MITM as HTTPS traffic is much harder to manipulate. Deterministic algorithm: For each file: If not .svg: For each line: If doesn't contain `\bxmlns\b`: For each link, `\bhttp://[^# \t\r\n]*(?:\w|/)`: If neither `\bgnu\.org/license`, nor `\bmozilla\.org/MPL\b`: If both the HTTP and HTTPS versions return 200 OK and serve the same content: Replace HTTP with HTTPS.

2013-07-05cpupower: Introduce idle-set subcommand and C-state enabling/disablingThomas Renninger
Example: cpupower idle-set -d 3 will disable C-state 3 on all processors (set commands are active on all CPUs by default), same as: cpupower -c all idle-set -d 3 Signed-off-by: Thomas Renninger <trenn@suse.de> Signed-off-by: Rafael J. Wysocki <rafael.j.wysocki@intel.com>
2012-11-27cpupower: Provide -c param for cpupower monitor to schedule process on all coresThomas Renninger
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 ...

2011-07-29cpupowerutils - cpufrequtils extended with quite some featuresDominik Brodowski
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>
