✨ CPUPOWER-POWERCAP-INFO(1) ✨

cpupower Manual, bestie, this is the page for peeking at your CPU's powercapping setup 💖

🫧 NAME

cpupower-powercap-info — shows powercapping related kernel and hardware configurations 🔋

📝 SYNOPSIS

cpupower powercap-info

💅 DESCRIPTION

okay so cpupower powercap-info shows you the kernel's powercapping subsystem info 👀 but it's picky. It needs hardware support AND a loaded powercapping driver. Right now the only driver that exists is intel_rapl, and it exports the hardware values to userspace through sysfs 🔌

Some settings are platform-wide, and some only affect single cores 🧠 By default you only get to see the values for core zero 🙈 If you want every core's settings, run cpupower --cpu all cpuinfo instead. Check out cpupower(1) to learn how to pick specific cores 🎀
