msr is a tool to display or modify x86 model-specific registers (MSRs).

The syntax for arguments is:

(none) : display all MSRs
number : display MSR with number
subname : display any MSRs whose names contain subname
number.field : display field in MSR with number
name.field : display field in MSR with name
number=value : set MSR with number to value
name=value : set MSR with name to value
number.field=value : set field in MSR with number to value
name.field=value : set field in MSR with name to value

Options:

msr accepts the following command line arguments:

-1, --one-cpu
Display information only for the first CPU. This cuts down on the output on a multiprocessor system, and is useful when certain that all CPUs are identical.
--symbolic-msrs
Display MSR names only, unless only a number is known.
--symbolic-values
Display and set MSR values symbolically only. Normally, if an MSR value could not be interpreted symbolically, an attempt would be made to interpret it as a number, as a fallback. This option disables that fallback.
--symbolic-fields
Display and set MSR field values symbolically only. Normally, if a field value could not be interpreted symbolically, an attempt would be made to interpret it as a number, as a fallback. This option disables that fallback.
--numeric-msrs
Display MSR numbers only.
--numeric-values
Display and set MSR values as numbers.
--numeric-fields
Display and set MSR field values as numbers.
-n, --numeric
Display and set MSRs, MSR values, and MSR field values as numbers only. Equivalent to --numeric-msrs, --numeric-values, and --numeric-fields.
--no-field-names
Display MSR field descriptions only, omitting names. Normally both would be displayed.
--no-field-descrs
Display MSR field names only, omitting descriptions. Normally both would be displayed.
