Description:
|
|
A collection of both global and individual CPU attributes
|
|
|
|
Individual CPU attributes are contained in subdirectories
|
|
named by the kernel's logical CPU number, e.g.:
|
|
|
|
/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu#/

Description: Discover and adjust the kernel's multi-core scheduler support.
|
|
|
|
Possible values are:
|
|
|
|
0 - No power saving load balance (default value)
|
|
1 - Fill one thread/core/package first for long running threads
|
|
2 - Also bias task wakeups to semi-idle cpu package for power
|
|
savings
|
|
|
|
sched_mc_power_savings is dependent upon SCHED_MC, which is
|
|
itself architecture dependent.
|
|
|
|
sched_smt_power_savings is dependent upon SCHED_SMT, which
|
|
is itself architecture dependent.
|
|
|
|
The two files are independent of each other. It is possible
|
|
that one file may be present without the other.

kernel_max: the maximum cpu index allowed by the kernel

|
online: cpus that are online and being scheduled.
|
|

|
possible: cpus that have been allocated resources and can be

present: cpus that have been identified as being present in

the system.

Description: CPU topology files that describe a logical CPU's relationship
|
|
to other cores and threads in the same physical package.
|
|
|
|
One cpu# directory is created per logical CPU in the system,
|
|
e.g. /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu42/.
|
|
|
|
Briefly, the files above are:
|
|
|
|
core_id: the CPU core ID of cpu#. Typically it is the
|
|
hardware platform's identifier (rather than the kernel's).
|
|
The actual value is architecture and platform dependent.
|
|
|
|
core_siblings: internal kernel map of cpu#'s hardware threads
|
|
within the same physical_package_id.
|
|
|
|
core_siblings_list: human-readable list of the logical CPU
|
|
numbers within the same physical_package_id as cpu#.
|
|
|
|
physical_package_id: physical package id of cpu#. Typically
|
|
corresponds to a physical socket number, but the actual value
|
|
is architecture and platform dependent.
|
|
|
|
thread_siblings: internel kernel map of cpu#'s hardware
|
|
threads within the same core as cpu#
|

thread_siblings_list: human-readable list of cpu#'s hardware

Description: Discover cpuidle policy and mechanism
|
|
|
|
Various CPUs today support multiple idle levels that are
|
|
differentiated by varying exit latencies and power
|
|
consumption during idle.
|
|
|
|
Idle policy (governor) is differentiated from idle mechanism
|
|
(driver)
|
|
|
|
current_driver: displays current idle mechanism
|
|
|
|
current_governor_ro: displays current idle policy
|

Description: Discover and change clock speed of CPUs
|
|
|
|
Clock scaling allows you to change the clock speed of the
|
|
CPUs on the fly. This is a nice method to save battery
|
|
power, because the lower the clock speed, the less power
|
|
the CPU consumes.
|
|
|
|
There are many knobs to tweak in this directory.
|
|
|
|
See files in Documentation/cpu-freq/ for more information.
|
|
|
|
In particular, read Documentation/cpu-freq/user-guide.txt
|
|
to learn how to control the knobs.

Description: Disable L3 cache indices
|
|
|
|
These files exist in every CPU's cache/index3 directory. Each
|
|
cache_disable_{0,1} file corresponds to one disable slot which
|
|
can be used to disable a cache index. Reading from these files
|
|
on a processor with this functionality will return the currently
|
|
disabled index for that node. There is one L3 structure per
|
|
node, or per internal node on MCM machines. Writing a valid
|
|
index to one of these files will cause the specificed cache
|
|
index to be disabled.
|
|
|
|
All AMD processors with L3 caches provide this functionality.
