Applications using some libraries may need to be executed using elevated privileges.
The following instructions are for Linux systems. If you are using a different platform, change the commands accordingly.
Current EnergyMon implementation options are:
- dummy [default]: Mock implementation
- cray-pm: Cray XC30 and XC40 systems (e.g., NERSC Cori) via Linux sysfs files
- ibmpowernv: IBM PowerNV systems (e.g., OLCF Summit) via Linux sysfs energy sensor files
- ibmpowernv-power: IBM PowerNV systems (e.g., OLCF Summit) via Linux sysfs power sensor files
- ipg: Intel RAPL via
Intel Power Gadget - jetson: NVIDIA Jetson systems with INA3221 power sensors via Linux sysfs files
- msr: Intel RAPL via Linux Model-Specific Register device files (supports most non-Atom CPUs)
- odroid: Hardkernel ODROID XU+E and XU3 systems (with INA-231 power sensors) via Linux sysfs files

ioctlon Linux device files - osp: Hardkernel ODROID Smart Power meters (coarse-grained energy counter) via
HIDAPI - osp-polling: Hardkernel ODROID Smart Power meters (finer-grained power sensor) via

libusb - wattsup-libftdi: Watts Up Pro meter via
libftdi - zcu102: Xilinx Zynq UltraScale+ ZCU102 systems (with INA-226 power sensors) via Linux sysfs files
See the README files in subdirectories for implementation specifics, including dependencies.
This project uses CMake.
By default, all libraries will be built, with dummy as the energymon-default implementation:
mkdir _build
cd _build
cmake ..
makeTo use a different default implementation, e.g., the RAPL energy monitor, specify ENERGYMON_BUILD_DEFAULT with cmake:
cmake -DENERGYMON_BUILD_DEFAULT=rapl ..Set ENERGYMON_BUILD_DEFAULT=NONE to disable building a default implementation.
Its default value is dummy.
To build only a single library, e.g., the RAPL energy monitor, specify ENERGYMON_BUILD_LIB with cmake:
cmake -DENERGYMON_BUILD_LIB=rapl ..Set ENERGYMON_BUILD_LIB=NONE to only build the default implementation (if set).
Set back to its default value of ALL to build all libraries.
To build shared objects / dynamically linked libraries instead of static libraries, set BUILD_SHARED_LIBS with cmake:
cmake .. -DBUILD_SHARED_LIBS=ONFor an optimized build, set CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE when with cmake, e.g., one of:
cmake .. -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release
cmake .. -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=RelWithDebInfoOf course, you can specify multiple options, e.g.:
cmake .. -DENERGYMON_BUILD_LIB=NONE -DENERGYMON_BUILD_DEFAULT=rapl -DBUILD_SHARED_LIBS=ON -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=ReleaseBoolean options:
ENERGYMON_BUILD_SHMEM_PROVIDERS- enable/disable building shared memory providers (True by default)ENERGYMON_BUILD_UTILITIES- enable/disable building utility applications (True by default)ENERGYMON_BUILD_TESTS- enable/disable building test code (True by default)ENERGYMON_BUILD_EXAMPLES- enable/disable building examples (True by default)
To install libraries, headers, and binaries, run with proper privileges:
make installOn Linux, the installation usually places
libraries in /usr/local/lib,
header files in /usr/local/include/energymon, and
binary files in /usr/local/bin.
To remove files installed to the system, run with proper privileges:
make uninstallLibrary names have the format energymon-foo, where foo is a short name from the bulleted list above.
For example, the dummy library is named energymon-dummy.
The following instructions use the default library for simplicity and portability, but substitute names as needed.
Projects that use CMake can find the EnergyMon package and link against imported targets, which automatically applies properties like header search paths and transitive dependencies:
find_package(EnergyMon REQUIRED)
add_executable(hello_world hello_world.c)
target_link_libraries(hello_world PRIVATE EnergyMon::energymon-default)A more general approach for linking with an EnergyMon library is to use pkg-config:
cc $(pkg-config energymon-default --cflags) hello_world.c \
$(pkg-config energymon-default --libs --static) -o hello_worldor in a Makefile:
CFLAGS += $(shell pkg-config --cflags energymon-default)
LDFLAGS += $(shell pkg-config --libs --static energymon-default)
hello_world: hello_world.c
$(CC) $(CFLAGS) hello_world.c -o $@ $(LDFLAGS)If shared object libraries are installed, don't include the --static option.
Projects that use CMake >= 3.6 can alternatively use a pkg-config IMPORTED_TARGET, rather than the direct CMake imports documented above:
find_package(PkgConfig REQUIRED)
pkg_check_modules(EnergyMonDefault REQUIRED IMPORTED_TARGET energymon-default)
add_executable(hello_world hello_world.c)
target_link_libraries(hello_world PRIVATE PkgConfig::EnergyMonDefault)To use an EnergyMon implementation, you must first populate the struct by calling the getter function, then initialize it.
Don't forget to cleanup the instance once you're finished with it.
See energymon.h and energymon-default.h for more detailed function descriptions.
energymon em;
uint64_t start_uj, end_uj;
// get the energymon instance and initialize
energymon_get_default(&em);
em.finit(&em);
// profile application function
start_uj = em.fread(&em);
do_work();
end_uj = em.fread(&em);
printf("Total energy for do_work() in microjoules: %"PRIu64"\n", end_uj - start_uj);
// destroy the instance
em.ffinish(&em);This project includes a handful of applications.
All of the following are linked with energymon-default:
energymon-cmd-profile: Prints out time, energy, and power statistics for the execution of a given shell command.energymon-power-poller: Prints average power values at the requested interval for the previous interval period.energymon-file-provider: Writes energy data to a file (overwrites previous values).energymon-idle-power: Prints the average power over the given interval (meant to run in isolation and measure idle power consumption).energymon-info: Prints information about the implementation.energymon-overhead: Prints the latency overhead in nanoseconds of the functionsfinit,fread, andffinish.
Implementation-specific versions of these utilities are also provided.
Shared memory providers allow exposing energy data to one or more unprivileged applications for sources that require elevated privileges and/or exclusive access.
The providers may need to run with elevated privileges, but other applications can attach to their shared memory and read energy data using the shmem EnergyMon implementation.
