NAME
       cpupower - Shows and sets processor power related values

SYNOPSIS
       cpupower [ -c cpulist ]  [ARGS]

       cpupower -v|--version

       cpupower -h|--help

DESCRIPTION
       cpupower	 is a collection of tools to examine and tune power saving related features of your processor.

       The  manpages  of  the  commands	 (cpupower-(1))  provide  detailed  descriptions of supported features. Run
       cpupower help to get an overview of supported commands.

Options
       --help, -h
	   Shows supported commands and general usage.

       --cpu cpulist,  -c cpulist
	   Only show or set values for specific cores.	This option is not supported by all commands, details can  be  found
	   in the manpages of the commands.

	   Some	 commands  access  all	cores (typically the *-set commands), some only the first core (typically the *-info
	   commands) by default.

	   The syntax for  is based on how the kernel exports CPU bitmasks via sysfs files. Some examples:

	       Input	       Equivalent to

	       all	       all cores

	       0-3	       0,1,2,3

	       0-7:2	       0,2,4,6

	       1,3,5-7	       1,3,5,6,7

	       0-3:2,8-15:4    0,2,8,12

       --version,  -v
	   Print the package name and version number.
