MSR Trace Events
|

================

|

The x86 kernel supports tracing most MSR (Model Specific Register) accesses.
|
||||
To see the definition of the MSRs on Intel systems please see the SDM
|
||||
at http://www.intel.com/sdm (Volume 3)
|
||||
|
||||
Available trace points:
|
||||
|
||||
/sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/msr/
|
||||
|
||||
Trace MSR reads:
|
||||
|
||||
read_msr
|
||||
|
||||
- msr: MSR number
|
||||
- val: Value written
|
||||
- failed: 1 if the access failed, otherwise 0
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
Trace MSR writes:
|
||||
|
||||
write_msr
|
||||
|
||||
- msr: MSR number
|
||||
- val: Value written
|
||||
- failed: 1 if the access failed, otherwise 0
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
Trace RDPMC in kernel:
|
||||
|
||||
rdpmc
|
||||
|
||||
The trace data can be post processed with the postprocess/decode_msr.py script::
|
||||
|
||||
cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/trace | decode_msr.py /usr/src/linux/include/asm/msr-index.h
|
||||
|
||||
to add symbolic MSR names.
