-\fBturbostat \fP reports processor topology, frequency

+\fBturbostat \fP reports processor topology, frequency,
+idle power-state statistics, temperature and power on modern X86 processors.
Either \fBcommand\fP is forked and statistics are printed
upon its completion, or statistics are printed periodically.
\fBturbostat \fP
-requires that the processor
+must be run on root, and
+minimally requires that the processor
supports an "invariant" TSC, plus the APERF and MPERF MSRs.
-\fBturbostat \fP will report idle cpu power state residency
-on processors that additionally support C-state residency counters.
+Additional information is reported depending on hardware counter support.
