tools/power turbostat: simplify Bzy_MHz calculation
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
    Bzy_MHz = TSC_delta*tsc_tweak/APERF_delta/MPERF_delta/measurement_interval

becomes

    Bzy_MHz = base_mhz/APERF_delta/MPERF_delta

on systems which support MSR_NHM_PLATFORM_INFO.

base_mhz is calculated directly from the base_ratio
reported in MSR_NHM_PLATFORM_INFO * bclk,
and bclk is discovered via MSR or cpuid.

This reduces the dependency of Bzy_MHz calculation on the TSC.
Previously, there were 4 TSC readings required in each caculation,
the raw TSC delta combined with the measurement_interval.
This also removes the "tsc_tweak" correction factor used when
TSC runs on a different base clock from the CPU's bclk.

After this change, tsc_tweak is used only for %Busy.

The end-result should be a Bzy_MHz result slightly less prone to jitter.
