Имя (Name)
msr - x86 CPU MSR access device
Описание (Description)
/dev/cpu/CPUNUM/msr provides an interface to read and write the
model-specific registers (MSRs) of an x86 CPU. CPUNUM is the
number of the CPU to access as listed in /proc/cpuinfo.
The register access is done by opening the file and seeking to
the MSR number as offset in the file, and then reading or writing
in chunks of 8 bytes. An I/O transfer of more than 8 bytes means
multiple reads or writes of the same register.
This file is protected so that it can be read and written only by
the user root, or members of the group root.
Примечание (Note)
The msr driver is not auto-loaded. On modular kernels you might
need to use the following command to load it explicitly before
use:
$ modprobe msr
