.SH NAME
Transmeta(TM) Crusoe(TM) LongRun(TM) utility
.SH SYNOPSIS
.B longrun [-c device] [-m device] [-hlpv] [-f flag] [-s low high]
.SH DESCRIPTION
The
.I longrun
utility is used to control and query LongRun settings on Transmeta
Crusoe processors.
.TP
-c device
Set the CPUID device.  The default CPUID device is
.BR /dev/cpu/0/cpuid .
.TP
-m device
Set the MSR device.  The default CPUID device is
.BR /dev/cpu/0/msr .
.TP
-h
Print help.
.TP
-l
List LongRun information about available performance levels for
the CPU.
.RS 7
.TP
The following values are reported on all Transmeta CPUs that \
implement LongRun.
.RS 3
.TP
%
An available performance level, expressed as a percentage of range of
available core CPU frequencies.  0 corresponds to the lowest available
frequency and 100 corresponds to the highest.
.TP
MHz
The core CPU frequency at that level.
.TP
Volts
The core CPU voltage at that level.
.TP
usage
The power usage relative to the maximum performance level.
.RE
.RE
.TP
-p
Print current LongRun settings and status: whether LongRun is enabled,
whether LongRun Thermal Extensions are active, the current LongRun
performance window (expressed as a percentile range), the current
LongRun performance level (expressed as a percentile), and the current
LongRun flags.
.TP
-v
Be more verbose.
.TP
-f flag
Set a LongRun mode flag.  Currently, the two supported flags are
.B performance
and
.BR economy .
This controls whether the processor is in "performance mode" or
"economy mode".
.TP
-s low high
Set the current LongRun performance window as a percentile range.  The
low number cannot be greater than the high number.  The minimum and
maximum performance values accepted by the CPU are 0 and 100,
respectively.
.SH ENVIRONMENT
No environment variables are used.
.SH FILES
This program requires that the Linux CPUID and MSR devices be compiled
into the kernel (or loaded as kernel modules), that the CPUID character
device be readable, and that the MSR character device be both readable
and writable.
