Power, Energy and Time Units MSR_RAPL_POWER_UNIT/ C001_0299: shared with all cores in the socket 2. Energy consumed by each Core MSR_CORE_ENERGY_STATUS/ C001_029A: 32-bitRO, Accumulator, core-level power reporting 3. Energy consumed by Socket MSR_PACKAGE_ENERGY_STATUS/ C001_029B: 32-bitRO, Accumulator, socket-level power reporting, shared with all cores in socket These registers are updated every 1ms and cleared on reset of the system. Note: If SMT is enabled, Linux enumerates all threads as cpus. Since, the energy status registers are accessed at core level, reading those registers from the sibling threads would result in duplicate values. Hence, energy counter entries are not populated for the siblings. Energy Caluclation ------------------ Energy information (in Joules) is based on the multiplier, 1/2^ESU; where ESU is an unsigned integer read from MSR_RAPL_POWER_UNIT register. Default value is 10000b, indicating energy status unit is 15.3 micro-Joules increment. Reported values are scaled as per the formula scaled value = ((1/2^ESU) * (Raw value) * 1000000UL) in uJoules Users calculate power for a given domain by calculating dEnergy/dTime for that domain. Energy accumulation -------------------------- Current, Socket energy status register is 32bit, assuming a 240W 2P system, the register would wrap around in 2^32*15.3 e-6/240 * 2 = 547.60833024 secs to wrap(~9 mins) The Core energy register may wrap around after several days. To improve the wrap around time, a kernel thread is implemented to accumulate the socket energy counters and one core energy counter per run to a respective 64-bit counter. The kernel thread starts running during probe, wakes up every 100secs and stops running when driver is removed. A socket and core energy read would return the current register value added to the respective energy accumulator.
