This patch adds support for the Digital Readout provided by the
IA32_THERM_STATUS MSR (0x19C) on Intel X86 processors. The readout
shows the number of degrees Celcius to the TCC (critical temperature)
supported by the processor. Thus, the larger, the better.
The perf_event support is provided via the msr PMU. The new
logical event is called cpu_thermal_margin. It comes with a unit and
snapshot files. The event shows the current temprature distance (margin).
It is not an accumulating event. The unit is degrees C. The event
is provided per logical CPU to make things simpler but it is the
same for both hyper-threads sharing a physical core.
$ perf stat -I 1000 -a -A -e msr/cpu_thermal_margin/
This will print the temperature for all logical CPUs.
time CPU counts unit events
1.000123741 CPU0 38 C msr/cpu_thermal_margin/
1.000161837 CPU1 37 C msr/cpu_thermal_margin/
1.000187906 CPU2 36 C msr/cpu_thermal_margin/
1.000189046 CPU3 39 C msr/cpu_thermal_margin/
1.000283044 CPU4 40 C msr/cpu_thermal_margin/
1.000344297 CPU5 40 C msr/cpu_thermal_margin/
1.000365832 CPU6 39 C msr/cpu_thermal_margin/
...
In case the temperature margin cannot be read, the reported value would be -1.
Works on all processors supporting the Digital Readout (dtherm in cpuinfo)

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
