+What: /sys/class/powercap/
+Date: September 2013
+KernelVersion: 3.13
+Contact: linux-pm@vger.kernel.org
+Description:
+ The powercap/ class sub directory belongs to the power cap
+ subsystem. Refer to
+ Documentation/power/powercap/powercap.rst for details.
+
+What: /sys/class/powercap/<control type>
+Date: September 2013
+KernelVersion: 3.13
+Contact: linux-pm@vger.kernel.org
+Description:
+ A <control type> is a unique name under /sys/class/powercap.
+ Here <control type> determines how the power is going to be
+ controlled. A <control type> can contain multiple power zones.
+
+What: /sys/class/powercap/<control type>/enabled
+Date: September 2013
+KernelVersion: 3.13
+Contact: linux-pm@vger.kernel.org
+Description:
+ This allows to enable/disable power capping for a "control type".
+ This status affects every power zone using this "control_type.
+
+What: /sys/class/powercap/<control type>/<power zone>
+Date: September 2013
+KernelVersion: 3.13
+Contact: linux-pm@vger.kernel.org
+Description:
+ A power zone is a single or a collection of devices, which can
+ be independently monitored and controlled. A power zone sysfs
+ entry is qualified with the name of the <control type>.
+ E.g. intel-rapl:0:1:1.
+
+What: /sys/class/powercap/<control type>/<power zone>/<child power zone>
+Date: September 2013
+KernelVersion: 3.13
+Contact: linux-pm@vger.kernel.org
+Description:
+ Power zones may be organized in a hierarchy in which child
+ power zones provide monitoring and control for a subset of
+ devices under the parent. For example, if there is a parent
+ power zone for a whole CPU package, each CPU core in it can
+ be a child power zone.
+
+What: /sys/class/powercap/.../<power zone>/name
+Date: September 2013
+KernelVersion: 3.13
+Contact: linux-pm@vger.kernel.org
+Description:
+ Specifies the name of this power zone.
+
+What: /sys/class/powercap/.../<power zone>/energy_uj
+Date: September 2013
+KernelVersion: 3.13
+Contact: linux-pm@vger.kernel.org
+Description:
+ Current energy counter in micro-joules. Write "0" to reset.
+ If the counter can not be reset, then this attribute is
+ read-only.
+
+What: /sys/class/powercap/.../<power zone>/max_energy_range_uj
+Date: September 2013
+KernelVersion: 3.13
+Contact: linux-pm@vger.kernel.org
+Description:
+ Range of the above energy counter in micro-joules.

+What: /sys/class/powercap/.../<power zone>/constraint_X_name
+Date: September 2013
+KernelVersion: 3.13
+Contact: linux-pm@vger.kernel.org
+Description:
+ Each power zone can define one or more constraints. Each
+ constraint can have an optional name. Here "X" can have values
+ from 0 to max integer.

+What: /sys/class/powercap/.../<power zone>/constraint_X_power_limit_uw
+Date: September 2013
+KernelVersion: 3.13
+Contact: linux-pm@vger.kernel.org
+Description:
+ Power limit in micro-watts should be applicable for
+ the time window specified by "constraint_X_time_window_us".
+ Here "X" can have values from 0 to max integer.

+Date: September 2013
+KernelVersion: 3.13
+Contact: linux-pm@vger.kernel.org
+Description:
+ Time window in micro seconds. This is used along with
+ constraint_X_power_limit_uw to define a power constraint.
+ Here "X" can have values from 0 to max integer.
