[PATCH 0/2] turbostat, support CPU0 hotplug [v2]

From: Prarit Bhargava
Date: Mon May 25 2015 - 08:34:49 EST


turbostat does not function properly on systems that support CPU0 hotplug.
When running turbostat on these systems the following error is seen.

[root@intel-chiefriver-04 ~]# turbostat ls
turbostat: no /dev/cpu/0/msr
Try "# modprobe msr": No such file or directory

This happens because base_cpu is set to 0 in the turbostat code and calls
to check_dev_msr() will fail if CPU0 has been removed.

This patchset adds functionality to set the default cpu value to the
current running cpu. This patch moves setup_all_buffers() to the
beginning of the turbostat_init() so that set_base_cpu() can take advantage
of topo.max_cpu_num which is set in setup_all_buffers().

After this change, on a system that has CPU0 removed,

[root@prarit ~]# ./turbostat -d -d ls

I have additionally tested various other hotplug configurations to make sure
that turbostat behaves correctly in those situations as well.

[v2]: use sched_getcpu() to get current cpu
