For +example, the intel-rapl control type represents the Intel "Running Average +Power Limit" (RAPL) technology, whereas the 'idle-injection' control type +corresponds to the use of idle injection for controlling power. + +Power zones represent different parts of the system, which can be controlled and +monitored using the power capping method determined by the control type the +given zone belongs to. They each contain attributes for monitoring power, as +well as controls represented in the form of power constraints. If the parts of +the system represented by different power zones are hierarchical (that is, one +bigger part consists of multiple smaller parts that each have their own power +controls), those power zones may also be organized in a hierarchy with one +parent power zone containing multiple subzones and so on to reflect the power +control topology of the system. In that case, it is possible to apply power +capping to a set of devices together using the parent power zone and if more +fine grained control is required, it can be applied through the subzones. + + +Example sysfs interface tree: + +/sys/devices/virtual/powercap +??? intel-rapl + ??? intel-rapl:0 + ? ??? constraint_0_name + ? ??? constraint_0_power_limit_uw + ? ??? constraint_0_time_window_us + ? ??? constraint_1_name + ? ??? constraint_1_power_limit_uw + ? ??? constraint_1_time_window_us + ? ??? device -> ../../intel-rapl + ? ??? energy_uj + ? ??? intel-rapl:0:0 + ? ? ??? constraint_0_name + ? ? ??? constraint_0_power_limit_uw + ? ? ??? constraint_0_time_window_us + ? ? ??? constraint_1_name + ? ? ??? constraint_1_power_limit_uw + ? ? ??? constraint_1_time_window_us + ? ? ??? device -> ../../intel-rapl:0 + ? ? ??? energy_uj + ? ? ??? max_energy_range_uj + ? ? ??? name + ? ? ??? enabled + ? ? ??? power + ? ? ? ??? async + ? ? ?

There is one +control type called intel-rapl which contains two power zones, intel-rapl:0 and +intel-rapl:1, representing CPU packages. Each of these power zones contains +two subzones, intel-rapl:j:0 and intel-rapl:j:1 (j = 0, 1), representing the +"core" and the "uncore" parts of the given CPU package, respectively. All of +the zones and subzones contain energy monitoring attributes (energy_uj, +max_energy_range_uj) and constraint attributes (constraint_*) allowing controls +to be applied (the constraints in the 'package' power zones apply to the whole +CPU packages and the subzone constraints only apply to the respective parts of +the given package individually). Since Intel RAPL doesn't provide instantaneous +power value, there is no power_uw attribute. + +In addition to that, each power zone contains a name attribute, allowing the +part of the system represented by that zone to be identified. +For example: + +cat /sys/class/power_cap/intel-rapl/intel-rapl:0/name +package-0 + +The Intel RAPL technology allows two constraints, short term and long term, +with two different time windows to be applied to each power zone.
