Hi Guenter, This serial of patches introduces an accumulated power reporting algorithm. It will calculate the average power consumption for the processor. The cpu feature flag is CPUID.8000_0007H:EDX[12].
This algorithm is used to test the comparison of processor power consumption with between MWAITX delay and TSC delay on AMD Carrizo platforms.

The change and documentation will go to master soon as below link. And This way is better to use smp_num_siblings which is un-defined variable out of CONFIG_SMP.

Changes from v2 -> v3: - As Guenter's suggestion, remove typecast, use &data->groups[0]. - Remove all "fam15_power_*" prefix at data. - Remove unnecessary ( ). - Fix the issue that is reported by build test robot, and add CPU_SUP_AMD as the dependence of fam15h_power - Remove the WARN_ON at do_read_registers_on_cu, because it must be behind CPUID check. The MSR must be available since CPUID.8000_0007H:EDX[12] is set - Add get_online_cpus()/put_online_cpus() functions. - Refine commments and the method which generate cpumask for cu. - Add the interval scope to make the value suitable for user experience - Remove the useless mutex. Changes from v3 -> v4: - Rebase the patches to latest groeck/hwmon-next. - Use smp_num_siblings instead of cores_per_cu accessor. - Refine the cpumask method which is inspired by perf solution. - Fix some typo and errors. Changes from v4 -> v5: - Rebase patches to v4.6-rc1. - Use new x86 topology with compute id (cpu_core_id) and compute unit number (x86_max_cores) instead of smp_num_siblings. A simple example: ray@hr-ub:~/tip$ sensors fam15h_power-pci-00c4 Adapter: PCI adapter power1: 19.58 mW (avg = 2.55 mW, interval = 0.01 s) (crit = 15.00 W) ... These patches are rebased on v4.6-rc1.
