.SH ROW DESCRIPTIONS
The system configuration dump (if --quiet is not used) is followed by statistics. The first row of the statistics labels the content of each column (below). The second row of statistics is the system summary line. The system summary line has a '-' in the columns for the Package, Core, and CPU. The contents of the system summary line depends on the type of column. Columns that count items (eg. IRQ) show the sum across all CPUs in the system. Columns that show a percentage show the average across all CPUs in the system. Columns that dump raw MSR values simply show 0 in the summary. After the system summary row, each row describes a specific Package/Core/CPU. Note that if the --cpu parameter is used to limit which specific CPUs are displayed, turbostat will still collect statistics for all CPUs in the system and will still show the system summary for all CPUs in the system.
.SH COLUMN DESCRIPTIONS
-.nf
+.PP
\fBusec\fP For each CPU, the number of microseconds elapsed during counter collection, including thread migration -- if any. This counter is disabled by default, and is enabled with "--enable usec", or --debug. On the summary row, usec refers to the total elapsed time to collect the counters on all cpus.
+.PP
\fBTime_Of_Day_Seconds\fP For each CPU, the gettimeofday(2) value (seconds.subsec since Epoch) when the counters ending the measurement interval were collected. This column is disabled by default, and can be enabled with "--enable Time_Of_Day_Seconds" or "--debug". On the summary row, Time_Of_Day_Seconds refers to the timestamp following collection of counters on the last CPU.
+.PP
\fBCore\fP processor core number. Note that multiple CPUs per core indicate support for Intel(R) Hyper-Threading Technology (HT).
+.PP
\fBCPU\fP Linux CPU (logical processor) number. Yes, it is okay that on many systems the CPUs are not listed in numerical order -- for efficiency reasons, turbostat runs in topology order, so HT siblings appear together.
+.PP
\fBPackage\fP processor package number -- not present on systems with a single processor package.
+.PP
\fBAvg_MHz\fP number of cycles executed divided by time elapsed. Note that this includes idle-time when 0 instructions are executed.
+.PP
\fBBusy%\fP percent of the measurement interval that the CPU executes instructions, aka. % of time in "C0" state.
+.PP
\fBBzy_MHz\fP average clock rate while the CPU was not idle (ie. in "c0" state).
+.PP
\fBTSC_MHz\fP average MHz that the TSC ran during the entire interval.
+.PP
\fBIRQ\fP The number of interrupts serviced by that CPU during the measurement interval. The system total line is the sum of interrupts serviced across all CPUs. turbostat parses /proc/interrupts to generate this summary.
+.PP
\fBSMI\fP The number of System Management Interrupts serviced CPU during the measurement interval. While this counter is actually per-CPU, SMI are triggered on all processors, so the number should be the same for all CPUs.
+.PP
\fBC1, C2, C3...\fP The number times Linux requested the C1, C2, C3 idle state during the measurement interval. The system summary line shows the sum for all CPUs. These are C-state names as exported in /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu*/cpuidle/state*/name. While their names are generic, their attributes are processor specific. They the system description section of output shows what MWAIT sub-states they are mapped to on each system.
+.PP
\fBC1%, C2%, C3%\fP The residency percentage that Linux requested C1, C2, C3.... The system summary is the average of all CPUs in the system. Note that these are software, reflecting what was requested. The hardware counters reflect what was actually achieved.
+.PP
\fBCPU%c1, CPU%c3, CPU%c6, CPU%c7\fP show the percentage residency in hardware core idle states. These numbers are from hardware residency counters.
+.PP
\fBCoreTmp\fP Degrees Celsius reported by the per-core Digital Thermal Sensor.
+.PP
\fBPkgTmp\fP Degrees Celsius reported by the per-package Package Thermal Monitor.
+.PP
\fBGFX%rc6\fP The percentage of time the GPU is in the "render C6" state, rc6, during the measurement interval. From /sys/class/drm/card0/power/rc6_residency_ms.
+.PP
\fBGFXMHz\fP Instantaneous snapshot of what sysfs presents at the end of the measurement interval. From /sys/class/graphics/fb0/device/drm/card0/gt_cur_freq_mhz.
+.PP
\fBPkg%pc2, Pkg%pc3, Pkg%pc6, Pkg%pc7\fP percentage residency in hardware package idle states. These numbers are from hardware residency counters.
+.PP
\fBPkgWatt\fP Watts consumed by the whole package.
+.PP
\fBCorWatt\fP Watts consumed by the core part of the package.
+.PP
\fBGFXWatt\fP Watts consumed by the Graphics part of the package -- available only on client processors.
+.PP
\fBRAMWatt\fP Watts consumed by the DRAM DIMMS -- available only on server processors.
+.PP
\fBPKG_%\fP percent of the interval that RAPL throttling was active on the Package. Note that the system summary is the sum of the package throttling time, and thus may be higher than 100% on a multi-package system. Note that the meaning of this field is model specific. For example, some hardware increments this counter when RAPL responds to thermal limits, but does not increment this counter when RAPL responds to power limits. Comparing PkgWatt and PkgTmp to system limits is necessary.
+.PP
\fBRAM_%\fP percent of the interval that RAPL throttling was active on DRAM.
-.fi
+.PP
+\fBUncMHz\fP uncore MHz, instantaneous sample.
.SH TOO MUCH INFORMATION EXAMPLE
By default, turbostat dumps all possible information -- a system configuration header, followed by columns for all counters.
This is ideal for remote debugging, use the "--out" option to save everything to a text file, and get that file to the expert helping you debug.
.PP
When you are not interested in all that information, and there are several ways to see only what you want. First the "--quiet" option will skip the configuration information, and turbostat will show only the counter columns. Second, you can reduce the columns with the "--hide" and "--show" options. If you use the "--show" option, then turbostat will show only the columns you list. If you use the "--hide" option, turbostat will show all columns, except the ones you list.
.PP
-To find out what columns are available for --show and --hide, the "--list" option is available. For convenience, the special strings "sysfs" can be used to refer to all of the sysfs C-state counters at once:

-This example also shows the use of the --hide option to skip columns that are not wanted.
-Note that cpu4 in this example is 99.99% busy, while the other CPUs are all under 1% busy.
-Notice that cpu4's HT sibling is cpu0, which is under 1% busy, but can get into CPU%c1 only,
-because its cpu4's activity on shared hardware keeps it from entering a deeper C-state.
