1*4882a593SmuzhiyunToDos sorted by priority:
2*4882a593Smuzhiyun
3*4882a593Smuzhiyun- Use bitmask functions to parse CPU topology more robust
4*4882a593Smuzhiyun  (current implementation has issues on AMD)
5*4882a593Smuzhiyun- Try to read out boost states and frequencies on Intel
6*4882a593Smuzhiyun- Somewhere saw the ability to read power consumption of
7*4882a593Smuzhiyun  RAM from HW on Intel SandyBridge -> another monitor?
8*4882a593Smuzhiyun- Add another c1e debug idle monitor
9*4882a593Smuzhiyun  -> Is by design racy with BIOS, but could be added
10*4882a593Smuzhiyun     with a --force option and some "be careful" messages
11*4882a593Smuzhiyun- Add cpu_start()/cpu_stop() callbacks for monitor
12*4882a593Smuzhiyun  -> This is to move the per_cpu logic from inside the
13*4882a593Smuzhiyun     monitor to outside it. This can be given higher
14*4882a593Smuzhiyun     priority in fork_it.
15*4882a593Smuzhiyun- Fork as many processes as there are CPUs in case the
16*4882a593Smuzhiyun  per_cpu_schedule flag is set.
17*4882a593Smuzhiyun  -> Bind forked process to each cpu.
18*4882a593Smuzhiyun  -> Execute start measures via the forked processes on
19*4882a593Smuzhiyun     each cpu.
20*4882a593Smuzhiyun  -> Run test executable in a forked process.
21*4882a593Smuzhiyun  -> Execute stop measures via the forked processes on
22*4882a593Smuzhiyun     each cpu.
23*4882a593Smuzhiyun  This would be ideal as it will not introduce noise in the
24*4882a593Smuzhiyun  tested executable.
