The MSR Tools project provides utilities to access x86
processor MSRs and CPU ID directly.
Those tools access the hardware through the
/dev/cpu/<cpu#>/msr and /dev/cpu/<cpu#>/cpuid devices. This
necessitates msr and cpuid support in the kernel, which
means you need a kernel compiled with configuration options
CONFIG_X86_CPUID and CONFIG_X86_MSR enabled.
