CPUPOWER(1) cpupower Manual CPUPOWER(1)NAME
cpupower - Shows and sets processor power related values
SYNOPSIS
cpupower [ -c cpulist ] <command> [ARGS]
cpupower -v|--version
cpupower -h|--help
DESCRIPTION
cpupower is a collection of tools to examine and tune power saving related features of your processor.
The manpages of the commands (cpupower-<command>(1)) provide detailed descriptions of supported features. Run cpupower help to get an over-
view of supported commands.
Options--help, -h
Shows supported commands and general usage.
--cpu cpulist, -c cpulist
Only show or set values for specific cores. This option is not supported by all commands, details can be found in the manpages of the
commands.
Some commands access all cores (typically the *-set commands), some only the first core (typically the *-info commands) by default.
The syntax for <cpulist> is based on how the kernel exports CPU bitmasks via sysfs files. Some examples:
Input Equivalent to
all all cores
0-3 0,1,2,3
0-7:2 0,2,4,6
1,3,5-7 1,3,5,6,7
0-3:2,8-15:4 0,2,8,12
--version, -v
Print the package name and version number.

cpufreq-aperf(1)cpufreq-aperf(1)NAME
cpufreq-aperf - Calculates the average frequency over a time period
SYNTAX
cpufreq-aperf [options]
DESCRIPTION
On latest processors exist two MSR registers refered to as:
- MPERF increasing with maxium (P0) frequency in C0
- APERF increasing with current/actual frequency in C0
From this information the average frequency over a time period can be calculated and this is what this tool does.
A nice falloff feature beside the average frequency is the time a processor core remained in C0 (working state) or any CX (sleep state)
processor sleep state during the measured time period. This information can be determined from the fact that MPERF only increases in C0
state.
OPTIONS -c --cpu <CPU>
The <CPU> core to measure - default all cores.
-i --interval <seconds>
Refresh rate - default 1 second.
-o --once
Exit after one interval.
-h --help
Prints the available options.
REMARKS
The msr driver must be loaded for this command to work.

Hello all.
I have made an application in C using pthreads. My problem is that my program seems to be only using 1 of my cores when I create multiple threads. I have 4 cores (Q9300). I am using Ubuntu 8.04.
I do believe the problem is that on linkage it's using a pthread emulation package... (4 Replies)

Hello Friends
I am currently facing high CPU usage problem which is making my site extremely slow.

Hi,
Could you please Tell me the command to find the number of cores in red hat box?

turbostat reports C-states of all CPU cores, and includes entries for each hyper-threaded core as well. Often enough the two logical cores on a single physical core will list different C state percentages. Does that make any sense?
