The SMI counter is popular -- so display it by default rather than requiring an option. What the heck, we've blown the 80 column budget on many systems already... Note that the value displayed is the delta during the measurement interval. The absolute value of the counter can still be seen with the generic 32-bit MSR option, ie. -m 0x34 Signed-off-by: Len Brown <len.brown@intel.com>

.SH DESCRIPTION
|
|
\fBturbostat \fP reports processor topology, frequency,
|
|
idle power-state statistics, temperature and power on modern X86 processors.
|
|
Either \fBcommand\fP is forked and statistics are printed
|
|
upon its completion, or statistics are printed periodically.
|
|
|
|
\fBturbostat \fP
|
|
must be run on root, and
|
|
minimally requires that the processor
|
|
supports an "invariant" TSC, plus the APERF and MPERF MSRs.
|
|
Additional information is reported depending on hardware counter support.
|
|
|
|
.SS Options

|
The \fB-P\fP option limits output to the 1st thread in each Package.
|
|
.PP
|
|
The \fB-S\fP option limits output to a 1-line System Summary for each interval.
|
|
.PP
|
|

|
|
displays the statistics gathered since it was forked.

.SH EXAMPLE
|
|
Without any parameters, turbostat prints out counters ever 5 seconds.
|
|
(override interval with "-i sec" option, or specify a command
|
|
for turbostat to fork).
|
|
|
|
The first row of statistics is a summary for the entire system.
|
|
For residency % columns, the summary is a weighted average.
|
|
For Temperature columns, the summary is the column maximum.
|
|
For Watts columns, the summary is a system total.
|
|
Subsequent rows show per-CPU statistics.

The \fBmax efficiency\fP frequency, a.k.a. Low Frequency Mode, is the frequency
|
|
available at the minimum package voltage. The \fBTSC frequency\fP is the nominal
|
|
maximum frequency of the processor if turbo-mode were not available. This frequency
|
|
should be sustainable on all CPUs indefinitely, given nominal power and cooling.
|
|
The remaining rows show what maximum turbo frequency is possible
|
|
depending on the number of idle cores. Note that this information is
|
|
not available on all processors.
|
|
.SH FORK EXAMPLE
|
|
If turbostat is invoked with a command, it will fork that command
|
|
and output the statistics gathered when the command exits.
|
|
eg. Here a cycle soaker is run on 1 CPU (see %c0) for a few seconds
|
|
until ^C while the other CPUs are mostly idle:
|
|
|
|
.nf
|
|
[root@x980 lenb]# ./turbostat cat /dev/zero > /dev/null

Above the cycle soaker drives cpu7 up its 3.6 GHz turbo limit
|
|
while the other processors are generally in various states of idle.
|
|
|
|
Note that cpu1 and cpu7 are HT siblings within core8.
|
|
As cpu7 is very busy, it prevents its sibling, cpu1,
|
|
from entering a c-state deeper than c1.
|
|
|
|
Note that turbostat reports average GHz of 3.63, while
|
|
the arithmetic average of the GHz column above is lower.
|
|
This is a weighted average, where the weight is %c0. ie. it is the total number of
|
|
un-halted cycles elapsed per time divided by the number of CPUs.
|
|
.SH SMI COUNTING EXAMPLE
|
|
On Intel Nehalem and newer processors, MSR 0x34 is a System Management Mode Interrupt (SMI) counter.
|
|
This counter is shown by default under the "SMI" column.

|

.SH NOTES
|
|
|
|
.B "turbostat "
|
|
must be run as root.
|
|
|
|
.B "turbostat "
|
|
reads hardware counters, but doesn't write them.
|
|
So it will not interfere with the OS or other programs, including
|
|
multiple invocations of itself.
|
|
|
|
\fBturbostat \fP
|
|
may work poorly on Linux-2.6.20 through 2.6.29,
|
|
as \fBacpi-cpufreq \fPperiodically cleared the APERF and MPERF
|
|
in those kernels.
|
|
|
|
If the TSC column does not make sense, then
|
|
the other numbers will also make no sense.
|
|
Turbostat is lightweight, and its data collection is not atomic.
|
|
These issues are usually caused by an extremely short measurement
|
|
interval (much less than 1 second), or system activity that prevents
|
|
turbostat from being able to run on all CPUS to quickly collect data.
|
|
|
|
The APERF, MPERF MSRs are defined to count non-halted cycles.
|
|
Although it is not guaranteed by the architecture, turbostat assumes
|
|
that they count at TSC rate, which is true on all processors tested to date.
