SVID IMON Current monitoring?

[BugReporterZ]

Does this document have enough information for adding current monitoring and other low-level SVID-related information for Intel CPUs? Reading model-specific registers is simple even via existing console tools, but how would accessing these work?

621792-svid-protocol-training-101-rev0p9.pdf

I got interested because recently a popular monitoring application on Windows (HWInfo) added a "SVID IOUT" sensor, and by polling it at a fast enough rate (e.g. 20ms) it looks like it might be possible to measure very brief current spikes in the CPU. It would be curious to see what happens at even shorter polling rates (although CoreFreq natively can only go as low as 100 ms).

In the end, the above document might or might not be helpful (I stumbled upon it by accident), but overall it seems like it should be possible to obtain current values directly from the processor's SVID protocol.

Helpful!

• Need the address(es) to play with the protocol command, returned data
  Perhaps in volume1 of processor datasheet
• BIOS screen inside the presentation looks like EDK2
  https://github.com/tianocore/edk2-platforms/tree/master/Platform/Intel
• Searching address things for "Imon"
  https://github.com/search?q=repo%3Atianocore%2Fedk2-platforms%20Imon&type=code
• One ACPI table, could be SSDT, as a starting point to probe SVID address(es)
• I would first sandbox protocol in a standalone driver before CoreFreq
• For example implementation of Xeon Westmere SuperIO built in CoreFreq with HWM_CHIPSET=W83627
  decoded from datasheet
• 100ms was calibrated to make sure not to CPU overhead and ruin monitoring. It can however be reprogrammed for lower value
• Need Hardware access

I don't think these other ones are particularly helpful, but they were posted together with the other document in the original source:

4_wire_pwm_spec_rev1.4_0.pdf
isl6364.pdf

Not sure if Purley is your processor architecture ?

• Intel Xeon Processor Scalable Family Datasheet, Volume Two: Registers
• Intel C620 Series Chipset Platform Controller Hub

But no CSR found to trigger IMON

So far, using latest version of CoreFreq, what are you getting from:

corefreq-cli -s -n -m -n -M -n -C 1

After building from the develop branch, my output is as follows:

Has your PC been upgraded to 4 populated DIMMs ?

Please post corefreq-cli -k -n -B

[BugReporterZ]

I've had 4 DIMMs for a good while.

./corefreq-cli -k -n -B

Thanks.

Since DDR5, have been introduced those DDR4 issues:

• Timings on channel #1
• DRAM speed needs to be ~3600 MT/s
