The CPU's clock speed and VCore are automatically decreased when the computer is under low load or idle, to save battery power, reduce heat and noise. The lifetime of the CPU is also extended because of reduced electromigration, which varies exponentially with temperature. [1] The technology is a concept similar to Intel's SpeedStep technology.
nice is a program found on Unix and Unix-like operating systems such as Linux.It directly maps to a kernel call of the same name. nice is used to invoke a utility or shell script with a particular CPU priority, thus giving the process more or less CPU time than other processes.
Redshift is primarily distributed for and used on the Linux operating system.. Redshift can be used to set a single color temperature and brightness ("one-shot mode") or can adjust the temperature and brightness continuously to follow the Sun's elevation, in which case it will transition to the night color temperature settings near twilight.
For the 5- and 15-minute load averages, the same 63%/37% ratio is computed over 5 minutes and 15 minutes, respectively. Therefore, it is not technically accurate that the 1-minute load average only includes the last 60 seconds of activity, as it includes 37% of the activity from the past, but it is correct to state that it includes mostly the ...
The Linux console is a system console internal to the Linux kernel. A system console is the device which receives all kernel messages and warnings and which allows logins in single user mode. [1] The Linux console provides a way for the kernel and other processes to send text output to the user, and to receive text input from the user.
The Ryzen family is an x86-64 microprocessor family from AMD, based on the Zen microarchitecture.The Ryzen lineup includes Ryzen 3, Ryzen 5, Ryzen 7, Ryzen 9, and Ryzen Threadripper with up to 96 cores.
The perf subsystem of Linux kernels from 2.6.37 up to 3.8.8 and RHEL6 kernel 2.6.32 contained a security vulnerability (CVE-2013-2094), which was exploited to gain root privileges by a local user. [ 17 ] [ 18 ] The problem was due to an incorrect type being used (32-bit int instead of 64-bit) in the event_id verification code path.
As the first largely "ground up redesign" of the Zen CPU core since the architecture family's original release in early 2017 with Zen 1/Ryzen 1000, Zen 3 was a significant architectural improvement over its predecessors; having a very significant IPC increase of +19% over the prior Zen 2 architecture in addition to being capable of reaching higher clock speeds.
