The -w argument in x86_energy_perf_policy currently triggers an
unconditional segfault.
This is because the argument string reads: "+a:c:dD:E:e:f:m:M:rt:u:vw" and
yet the argument handler expects an argument.
When parse_optarg_string is called with a null argument, we then proceed to
crash in strncmp, not horribly friendly.
The man page describes -w as taking an argument, the long form
(--hwp-window) is correctly marked as taking a required argument, and the
code expects it.
As such, this patch simply marks the short form (-w) as requiring an

x86_energy_perf_policy first uses __get_cpuid() to check the maximum
CPUID level and exits if it is too low. It then assumes that later
calls will succeed (which I think is architecturally guaranteed). It
also assumes that CPUID works at all (which is not guaranteed on
x86_32).
If optimisations are enabled, gcc warns about potentially
uninitialized variables. Fix this by adding an exit-on-error after
every call to __get_cpuid() instead of just checking the maximum
level.

cpupower crashes on VMWare guests. The guests have the AMD PStateDef MSR
(0xC0010064 + state number) set to zero. As a result fid and did are zero
and the crash occurs because of a divide by zero (cof = fid/did). This
can be prevented by checking the enable bit in the PStateDef MSR before
calculating cof. By doing this the value of pstate[i] remains zero and
the value can be tested before displaying the active Pstates.
Check the enable bit in the PstateDef register for all supported families
and only print out enabled Pstates.

This patch fixes a regression introduced in
commit 8cb48b32a5 ("tools/power turbostat: track thread ID in cpu_topology")
Turbostat uses incorrect cores number ('topo.num_cores') - its value is count
of logical CPUs, instead of count of physical cores. So it is twice as large as
it should be on a typical Intel system. For example, on a 6 core Xeon system
'topo.num_cores' is 12, and on a 52 core Xeon system 'topo.num_cores' is 104.
And interestingly, on a 68-core Knights Landing Intel system 'topo.num_cores'
is 272, because this system has 4 logical CPUs per core.
As a result, some of the turbostat calculations are incorrect. For example,
on idle 52-core Xeon system when all cores are ~99% in Core C6 (CPU%c6), the
summary (very first) line shows ~48% Core C6, while it should be ~99%.
This patch fixes the problem by fixing 'topo.num_cores' calculation.
Was:
1. Init 'thread_id' for all CPUs to -1
2. Run 'get_thread_siblings()' which sets it to 0 or 1
3. Increment 'topo.num_cores' when thread_id != -1 (bug!)
Now:
1. Init 'thread_id' for all CPUs to -1
2. Run 'get_thread_siblings()' which sets it to 0 or 1
3. Increment 'topo.num_cores' when thread_id is not 0
I did not have a chance to test this on an AMD machine, and only tested on a
couple of Intel Xeons (6 and 52 cores).

The turbostat code only looks at thread_siblings_list to determine if
processing units/threads are on the same the core. This works well on
Intel systems which have a shared L1 instruction and data cache. This
does not work on AMD systems which have shared L1 instruction cache but
separate L1 data caches. Other utilities also check sibling's core ID
to determine if the processing unit shares the same core.
Additionally, the cpu_topology *cpus list used in topology_probe() can
be used elsewhere in the code to simplify things.
Export *cpus to the entire turbostat code, and add Processing Unit/Thread
IDs information to each cpu_topology struct. Confirm that the thread
is on the same core as indicated by thread_siblings_list.
