Description
-----------
The Energy driver exposes the energy counters that are
reported via the Running Average Power Limit (RAPL)
Model-specific Registers (MSRs) via the hardware monitor
(HWMON) sysfs interface.
1. 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.
Frequency of the accumulator thread is set during the probe
based on the chosen energy unit resolution. For example
A. fine grain (1.625 micro J)
B. course grain (0.125 milli J)
A socket and core energy read would return the current register
value added to the respective energy accumulator.
