MODEL-SPECIFIC REGISTERS (MSRS)

29

Turbo Transition Attenuation Log
When set, indicates that the Turbo Transition Attenuation Status 

bit has asserted since the log bit was last cleared.
This log bit will remain set until cleared by software writing 0.

63:30

Reserved.

MSR_GRAPHICS_PERF_LIMIT_

REASONS

Package

Indicator of Frequency Clipping in the Processor Graphics 

(R/W)
(frequency refers to processor graphics frequency)

0

PROCHOT Status (R0)
When set, frequency is reduced below the operating system 

request due to assertion of external PROCHOT.

1

Thermal Status (R0)
When set, frequency is reduced below the operating system 

request due to a thermal event.

3:2

Reserved.

4

Graphics Driver Status (R0)
When set, frequency is reduced below the operating system 

request due to Processor Graphics driver override.

5

Autonomous Utilization-Based Frequency Control Status (R0) 
When set, frequency is reduced below the operating system 

request because the processor has detected that utilization is low

6

VR Therm Alert Status (R0)
When set, frequency is reduced below the operating system 

request due to a thermal alert from the Voltage Regulator.

7

Reserved.

8

Electrical Design Point Status (R0)
When set, frequency is reduced below the operating system 

request due to electrical design point constraints (e.g. maximum 

electrical current consumption).

9

Graphics Power Limiting Status (R0)
When set, frequency is reduced below the operating system 

request due to domain-level power limiting.

10

Package-Level Power Limiting PL1 Status (R0)
When set, frequency is reduced below the operating system 

request due to package-level power limiting PL1.

11

Package-Level PL2 Power Limiting Status (R0)
When set, frequency is reduced below the operating system 

request due to package-level power limiting PL2.

15:12

Reserved 

16

PROCHOT Log 
When set, indicates that the PROCHOT Status bit has asserted 

since the log bit was last cleared.
This log bit will remain set until cleared by software writing 0.
