[PATCH 2/2] msrtool: Read both MSR values in diff mode from file, if available

Peter Stuge peter at stuge.se
Sat Jan 16 20:19:24 CET 2010


Previously, msrtool would assume that MSR values should be compared
between stored value in file and current value in hardware which msrtool
was running on. This does not always fit the use case and with this
change msrtool can now compare two sets of MSR values stored in a file.
If only one MSR value is stored in the file, msrtool will behave as
previously and read the second MSR value from hardware.

This change means that msrtool does not always need access to the system
MSR functions so it can now be run as a regular user when using diff
mode with both MSR values stored in the file.
