💾 msrsave — the msr-safe save & restore bestie

okay so this page is MSRSAVE(1) from the msr-safe family — it's literally your little save-point goblin for MSR state, and honestly it ate 💅

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

no cap, there are three whole moods this thing can be in:

SAVE MSR: 💖

msrsave outfile

RESTORE MSR: 🦋

msrsave -r infile

PRINT VERSION OR HELP: 🎀

msrsave --version | --help

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

so msrsave is the app that saves the state of all write accessible MSR values defined in the current MSR allowlist out to a file — or, if you're feeling restorative, it restores the MSR values from a saved state file. it's giving time machine, lowkey 👑

and yes, it also respects the standard --version and --help options, so it'll print the msr-safe package version or a lil brief message about usage. respectful king behavior fr fr 🫶

💅 OPTIONS 💅

  • --help — prints a brief summary of the command line usage info, then exits. short, sweet, iconic ✨
  • --version — prints the version of the msr-safe package to standard output, then exits. iykyk 📦
  • -r — restores the MSR values that are recorded in an existing MSR saved state file. yes bestie, this is the rewind button 🌀

🧚 tiny vibe check: that MSR allowlist thing in the DESCRIPTION matters — the save only covers what's write accessible and defined in the current allowlist. not me reminding you to keep that in mind, but also literally me reminding you 🙈

mwah 💜 that's the whole page — no crumbs left. this one's stamped December 2016 from the ms-safe squad, straight out of the msrsave(1) manual, and it's a whole mood. slay, bye 🎀
