Support for access to various energy and perf registers via papi

Solution Verified - Updated -

Issue

  • Kernel support for rw access to various energy and perf registers in papi.
  • Users need a way to measure perf on CPUs with possibly changing clock cycles.
  • Provide a means to access the RAPL data without necessarily giving direct access to the MSRs.
  • There are a lot of precedents of making data like this available using perf and PAPI.
